    Default My Great Niece & the Quilt I made/she won Christmas 2011

    Every year at Thanksgiving we put all of us sisters (9 of us) in a hat and our only brother draws a name. The name he draws is the sister that has to make two quilts for the drawing of quilts the following year. So, Thanksgiving 2010 my brother drew my name so I was the lucky one who got to make the two quilts for our Christmas drawing. One of my quilts was won by my great niece, Gracelyn Rae. She loved the quilt so much she made her grandmother, one of my younger sisters, go get her a pillow so she could lay down with it. LOL Hope you like the quilt!

    You did a wonderful job. That is so sweet she loved her new quilt. I bet that made you feel all warm and fuzzy inside.
