Home-made gifts are usually the best gifts to receive. I know that the giver spent some time thinking about what I would like. I knew there was a home-made gift in the making when I would hear giggles and was barred from my girls' bedroom. Actually, the gift started about a decade ago when Jordan was learning to quilt. She had sewn these squares together at some point and never finished another quilt.
Ivy found them. With Eva's help, they sewed them together. They, then embroidered each family member's name on a square.
And for the backing, they managed to sew a bandana to the squares. Quite an imagination for my girls.
Welcome to my family blog. I have been married to Mike for over half of my life. I love my Savior, Jesus. I am a stay-at-home, homeschooling mom to six terrific, interesting children. My 3 oldest were born to me in my younger years, while my 3 youngest were given to me by God in my older years. I am very blessed. ~Cheri
