I am great at starting things and bad at finishing things......until last month. I finished four baby quilts in February. Three were already started and the lavender quilt was started and finished in two days. I'm a little bit proud of myself. Maybe I'll become a finisher after all.
I started this quilt several years ago for a coworker's granddaughter that was born with vision problems. I put in my notice and told the grandma I would bring the quilt in when I finished it. She refused the quilt. She was mad because I was quitting. Just ridiculous,but one of the reasons I was glad to get out of that workplace! I had paper pieced the child's name so thought the quilt was a loss. I drug it out last month and covered the name with the doxie fabric and my granddaughter JoAnna volunteered to take the quilt. She's happy,I'm happy,but I hear that the grandma is still as crazy as ever. I pray that the child is having a happy life.

What a darling quilt... and I LOVE the backing fabric... too cute!
I'm sorry that the quilt didn't end up with the little girl for who it was intended... but I'm glad you're out of a bad work situation and have found a good home for it!
Silly Grandma, glad your grand daughter likes it!
Just love it!!!
Consider yourself lucky, if she had taken the quilt she probably would have trashed it. Good for you on those finishes!
