    This is beautiful! It MUST have taken a long time to do, especially all the applique-ing! I love that so many people make their quilts for someone else! I have seen alot of quilts made for new born babies on this blog, but this one is probably my favorite!

    This retrospective was wonderful to read and view. I think all quilts have stories and the retrospective shared numerous stories with us. I think it is so cool that the Dresden Plate quilt is quilted with Mason jar-sized circles. I enjoy canning in the summer time and think that connects well with the quilt having a plate motif. Food related, you know? The leaf baby quilt is delightful!
