Date: 1/31/12 9:54 AM My 21 month old grandson was SO EXCITED when we showed it to him! He hugged it and we HAD to carry it around with us. He layed on the floor with it and had to take it to bed. When he wakes up he wants to bring it downstairs...made every bandaid so worth it!

Date: 1/31/12 11:13 AM Oh so beautiful. The bright colors. Precious.
That little grandson will love everything you make him.
Beautiful job well done.     ------ ý1 Corinthians 13:4-7 "Love is patient, love is kind. It does not envy, it does not boast, it is not proud. It does not dishonor others, it is not self-seeking, it is not easily angered, it keeps no record of wrongs. Love does not delight in evil but rejoices with the truth. It always protects, always trusts, always hopes, always perseveres.

Date: 1/31/12 11:41 AM Thanks everyone! Generally speaking I stay away from pre-printed panels, and I really didn't like the printed areas around the characters on this one, but the characters are so cute!
here is the panel before I cut the borders off to change them. I wanted it to be more rectangular than it was:

I also hated those white dashes, but still love the quilt! ------ Cathryn |
