Kathy in WA :
Two years ago I made quilts for my then eight grandchildren for Christmas. It was March before I was over the tendonitis in my elbow. The next spring, two new grandchildren were added to the family when my daughter married, so they got quilts last year. Now I am working on those who got baby sized quilts in the first round and need a big boy or big girl quilt.

Pajama quilts for my boys. They're a quilt that they can climb into and zip up, but they can put their hands and feet out and get around in them. And Humbug bags for marbles and little things that boys collect.

I have made a store bought panel into a child size quilt, for a friend's child. I have also taken my scraps and made bibs for babies..Also rice bags, with covers made of scraps, and large quilts for special occasions
