I’m No Quilter
Tuesday, November 6th, 2007So I decided to take my own advice about the personalized quiltsand make one for my niece. She is an absolute girly girl in every way, completely in love with pink, and has been obsessed with soft fabrics since she was a few months old. She is also incredibly petite, so that normal sized blankets overwhelm her. I planned to put it all together and make her a quilt smaller than a normal sized one, made of the girly-est fabric I could find,and backed with an ultrasoft fleece. Everything seemed perfect as I pieced it together.
Anyone want a pink quilt, slightly small, uneven seams? I didn’t think so.
So now I must decide: accept the flaws as part of it’s charms and gift it anyway, or toss it in the donation box at the thrift shop and try again?
