My First Quilt

In case you missed this post on Gen X Quilters, I thought I would share my first quilt with you.
I made this quilt when I was just ten years old. I recently gave it to Emilie. All the teddy bears are counted cross stitch. I'm sure I would not have the patience for one of those these days!
 A couple of my favorites.

Come, all you who are thirsty,
come to the waters;
and you who have no money,
come, buy and eat!
Isaiah 55:1
Love,
xoxo

  2. Do you have a little patch on this telling when you made it and how old you were?

    It's so neat to see the next generation using (and loving) it!

  3. Awwww! So adorable and what a keepsake! I agree with Jenny - you definitely need a label on this one :)

  4. I made some of those same bears when I was younger. Noone in my family knew how to quilt, so they are framed. They look adorable in the quilt!
