    Have you felt guilty after skipping a few steps since the project was just for you?

    I give all my stuff away. Everything I do.. Getting ready for company, I knew I have fabric the perfect color of my living room. DP9, not enough for a table cloth but enough to cover the 100 year old Cradle's mattress. Only for show.. not use for babies anymore.

    Lovely piece job !! But bound it without quilting. :0(

    I wear guilt like a shroud.. just slap another badge on! hah!

    The Cradle Mattress quilt looks great. :0) Happy Sad, Happy Sad.. Happy Sad.. guilt go away about my cradle quilt!

    No worry it looks nice and you can always redo the binding and quilt it some other time. :D

    That's so pretty. Is that Chatty Cathy on the bed??? I have her, but she swallowed her cord years ago.

    That is pretty! Don't be so hard on yourself! If your cradle is a rocker, I have the same one given to me by a dear friend many years ago.

    thanks for the posts.

    She is one of the first American Girl Doll, Kirsten. She is retired. from about 1986.

    Yes, the cradle rocks ! how wonderful to have one too ! This was 100 years old 27 years ago.

    thought of a tie quilt. Still thinking.. will grab all the baby dolls and stuffies out of it for visits of friends. :0)
