Your quilt is wonderful. The children are precious. Their happy memories will be there forever and so will yours.

I'd say that you made very good use of your time, spending time with your DGD, spending time on a lake and quilting too. It doesn't get much better than that.

Taking kids to the lake-priceless
getting time to work on a quilt-good payback.

And they all look great, including the quilt top.

How fun! The kids look like they are having a ball, I bet the group kept you on your toes - I can see it, swimming and eating, swimming and eating! I'm surprised you had a chance to sew at all! Like what you have so far, can't wait to see the finished quilt.

Oh yes--please do. My grands love to play in Gma's scraps (we have 5 GD 3 to 10). 9 yo old and I will be sewing a pillowcase for a 4-H project on Wednesday. Later in the month will be working with the 8 yo so we can sew together too.
