When we started acquiring our grands I was into making reading quilts for them. I bought those cloth story book panels, cut them apart and put them back together sashed. I made a lot of them when they were infants and toddlers.
And of course, I bought some I didn't use because they outgrew the need. So here they sit. Another never.
These WILL be donated but if any of you who live in the continental US or Canada want any of these for your grands, speak now and I will be very happy to mail them to you at my cost. I'm sorry, Australia, but postage is nuts right now.
These were a big hit with my grands starting when they were little and I made them as their baby/toddler quilts. I didn't do fussy because I wanted them to drag them around the house carrying their sippy cups with them. I sashed them and quilted them.
Now, I COULD make these into charity quilts with the fabric overload I've been whining about but I will NOT quilt them. My machine is not a fancy thing and I'd end up using the thing for dust rags if I tried. So they would become yet another unfinished project.
I apologize for the color, really, white is white in real light.
I will wait until February 1 but after that they join the donated pile.
