It does not get any better

With the permission of the proud parents, Dana and Christian, here is a photo of Mira with the quilt 'Kool Kats' that I made earlier in the year and finally managed to send off to them (albeit a little bit belated as young Mira decided to arrive a tad earlier).


She is, of course, super cute.

Here is hoping that this little quilt becomes one of those favourite items, usually called 'blankey' that gets dragged around the house from room to room, ending up completely worn out and in tatters but nevertheless will hold that 'special' tag for years to come.

    She is adorable! My sister was a blankie kind of girl, never to go anywhere without hers. She went through 2. They were reduced to tatters, to the point that my dad had her last one framed for her years later. It looked more like a spider web than a blankie. I think she was 8 when my dad took it away and told her to stop sucking her thumb. It was a hard day for her.I still remember that day. A lot of crying going on.:) But I don't think it was as beautiful quilt as the one you made!

    My eldest daughter had a quilt like that. It ended up in strips and pieces. In the end I cut off some of the bitses and re-hemmed the quilt. Amazing...she still has it.
