Hope I did this right.

Ok...what I meant to say was this is the second quilt I've ever made from start to finish. It's not the second quilt for Katy. I have six grandbabies and each are getting a quilt) This "particular" one is for my granddaughter Katy...

Very pretty. Did you do the quilting using a walking foot or free style? Jo Ann

It is beautiful!

I used a walker. I'm a little gun shy about trying free. I just started! LOL Which do you prefer?

I think this is a beautiful quilt! Love it! Katy is a lucky child. You did a great job. Thank You for sharing with us. I don't recall seeing you here before so if you are new, Welcome. If you have been here & I failed to Welcome you, forgive me and I hope you will keep posting and showing your beautiful work. So you are an Army Mom? DD or DS? I Thank them for their service.

Hugs & Love

What an adorable quilt. The pinks are so vibrant. Great job for only your second quilt. You must be a natual. Lori

My grandmother makes quilts. She's 95 and has been doing it since she was about 13. So you pick up a little.

And to answer the question about the army mom thing. I don't know what dd or ds means....LOL I'm new. But it was my son. He is in the California Army National Guard and returned from Iraq one year ago. Hopefully won't be deploying again. It is agonizing to get up and act normal everyday while you're loved one is deployed. I also have a son-in-law serving in Germany (w/my daughter and two of my granddaughters) and another son-in-law in the Air Force living in Omaha w/my oldest daughter and their two sons. I'm very proud of my military guys...

I sure appreciate everyone's comments!! It's inspiring and I hope to learn a lot here! Yea!!!!! I love quilting!!!

DS....Dear Son
