...with my daughter's baby blanket...and it only took me ten years! LOL Well, it's certainly not professional and a real quilter might be grossed out, LOL, but anyway, here is a pic of my daughter's blanket. It is patches of clothes from her first year of life. Anyway, I finally finished it yesterday.

That's really cute. I crochet horrible afghans and all my kids want one. I can't get them rectangular. They still want one that I crochet myself. (My m-i-l has a knitting machine but they don't want that.)

That is absolutely beautiful! Is the Tigger patch from a short sleeve/shorts onsie type thing? Because my youngest had a onsie thing with that exact picture of Tigger on them.
You saying it took ten years reminded me of a comic I saw once of a mom standing at her son's college room door with a pair of Cookie Monster bib overalls saying, "I finally got your favorite overalls fixed!" LOL! Oh well, it's not like mom's don't have anything more important to do.

Thanks ladies! And...DJ...I can't REMEMBER! I do remember most of the outfits, but not all of them and the Tigger one, I just don't remember!
My daughter is so proud of her blanket, it's very cute! I told her she couldn't have it on her bed unless her room was clean...and WOW, I never saw her move so fast! LOL
Now I have to work on my 13 year old's blanket...LOL
