    This is the first bed quilt I've done by myself. My 10yo dd and I made her one though so I did most of it. I just started last year. You can do it! Quilting is taking over any spare time I have lol.

    That is priceless! My kids love their quilts too, and have actually started asking for new ones. I've thougth about doing a "hope chest" for both of them (9 year old girl and 7 year old boy)to take with them when they graduate college adn actually live on their own.

    They love to point their quilts out to friends adn say that their mom made them!

    Congrats, and your son is so cute!
