now you know i would have to do more than one.. cause iona would not let lauren have it to herself and lauren would freak when iona tried to take it! but i may be persuaded!

my embroidery skills are non existent at the moment.. this one is only the second quilt ive ever made.. so very new at this. as for what i would charge.. just the cost of the materials to make the quilt.. and that depends on the pattern used and material+ threads. at the moment ive not gotten past just using squares and straight cuts in my sewing so it is really basic.. but happy to make something once i get thru my list of new babies in my family!*laughs*

Yey lass ye're on a roll...wonder is you have ever thought of an heirloom quilt, made from pieces of the clothing worn by your child and usually given as a wedding present.

im gathering scrap to make a quilt from the kids clothes that they are outgrowing now. just old shirts and what not.. will make a patchwork out of them when i get around to it.. *Grins*

aleicia: the material can be anything you want it to be.. as long as its cotton or a cotton blend.. and not stretchy material.. thats a pain.. the pattern is the design of the quilt.. the block pattern that is used..
some are a lot easier than others.
