Tuesday Archives #40: Lap Quilts

Welcome to the linky party that let's you rejuvenate your old quilting/sewing posts! 
(Santa has our list of upcoming December themes ready! Check over in my sidebar.)

LAP QUILTS:

Sometimes the only thing better than a new quilt right out of the dryer, all crinkly and soft, is seeing it being used by a loved one. My day was made when our son-in-law texted me this picture of our little guy waking up from his nap...all cuddled up in his
Eye Spy quilt next to Daddy:
This week is all about sharing those ulitmate compliments when a quilt is transformed into that perfect quilty hug like Jasmine who blogs at Quilt Kisses always seems to do so well! I had to skim a bit, but I found one of my favorite older posts of hers titled: Three Small Quilts. If you haven't stopped by her blog...do! Her boys are adorable and they truly enjoy every lap quilt she creates for them!

  3. I think that seeing them wearing out tells me it is used and loved. Waiting to get a call for a new personal quilt.

  7. You are so sweet, Val! My loved ones all make quilting worthwhile. Although my favorite story came from my brother. He told me that he loves using the quilt I made for him, but his wife keeps taking it away to hang on the wall! Lol. A wall hanging for my sister-in-law is on my to-do list.

    Your grandson is sure adorable in his quilty hug.

  11. Is there anything better than making a quilt for someone and then seeing them enjoy it? I think not! Your little puddin' looks so comfy all wrapped up in his quilt! And you are right about Jasmine's lads; they are adorable!
