My grandson is absolutely precious to me.  He loves my quilts and enjoys looking through my novelty fabrics.  I've made him a quilt and multiple pillows for his room, plus little drawstring bags for crayons, carry caddies for art supplies, etc.  In fact, I believe he loves my quilts more than anyone else in the family.  When we made our wills out last year, I left him all my quilts.  He's only 8 now, but I know that if he inherits them, they will be treasured.

I "acquired" a granddaughter 2 years ago by the grace of God, but until then I too was surrounded by boys - 3 sons and 4 grandsons. It's fun to work in pink and ruffles and lace.

I love all these baby quilts.  With only one grandchild and not much hope of anymore, I don't get to make many.  I do make them for former students and friends as often as I can.  Nothing better than being wrapped up in the love of a quilt!  Truly a gift from the heart.

Lori, what a precious little girl's quilt.  I just love making little girl things since I have a grandson, no pink in my family!  :(

It's so fun to see what everyone is doing. Don't you just love to make quilts for babies? This is one of my latest quilts made from charm squares.

Thanks Carla, I do love the old patterns, I just hate how frumpy some of them are, I couldn't resist. I love your teddy bear quilt, I'm gonna have to give that pattern a go one of these days.

Deanna, I don't know how you found all those sports prints, but it turned out really cute, bet your son loved it.

Carla -- how ADORABLE ! I have one 'grand' so far and did a simple quilt for his room after he was born, and a toddler quilt made up of sports fabrics --

Son was an avid sports enthusiast -- and is still involved in all things lacrosse -- he runs a sports store in CT. So this quilt had to have everything, football, baseball, tennis, soccer, hockey, lacrosse, bowling, tennis, and golf. Wife runs a division for Ralph Lauren involved in golf -- so this has it all, literally. My quilter used a circular pattern on the quilt so the black / white squares take on a soccer ball effect -- came out adorable. The back fabric was referee whistles -- and everybody loved it ... going to have to make a few more now :D
