Ann, what an awesome job!! These types of quilts take alot longer to cut than a conventional quilt, too. And usually alot more planning. You've done a wonderful job!! The idea to leave in parts of the tags and plackets, etc. is a great idea!
Hats off to you for such loving gifts..truly a labor of love.

Ann, your thoughtful quilt is wonderful!!! I love how you used the tags and plackets! The label on a pocket is a great idea. Very nice.

That's a wonderful quilt and so very thoughtful on your part. I, too, love the way you included the tags and shirt front, etc. Very clever.

What a wonderful thing you are doing! I'm sure the children will cherish these quilts for years to come.

You are a great lady for being so very thoughtful doing this.
