Winonah and her grandchildren




Winonah sent fabric squares for each of her grandchildren. Each square has a note/wish attached, the child's name and age. I am so thankful for these squares...they were so thoughtful.

Sandra from Maine


Sandra sent fabric with fairies on it because she includes fairies in all of her quilts. A great way to include a peice of her in the quilt.

Tom and AJ Lutrell


Not only did AJ send two beautiful fabrics from she and her husband, she sent a beautiful poem. Though I had heard it before, it seemed even more special in this new context.

Ashley, Derek and Jasper Donovan




These squares are very representative of the Donovan family. The dogs are special because Derek and Ashley are huge dog lovers. The money fabric is for Jasper...Lillie's monkey cousin! The spools are representative of Ashley's love of quilting, but also of our grandmother, Margarett Alexander, who was an amazing seamstress. Finally, the clover is for good luck, and is representative of a wonderful memory of Miller Travis and our late uncle John Matthews.

Holly and her granddaughter Johanna Rose



Holly sent fabric she has used on her granddaughter, Johanna's quilt!

Kathy Gleichauf and Family




Kathy sent fabric for she and her husband (they are from New York so the apple fabric and Lilac fabric are from them). She also sent fabric that each of her granchildren picked out. I was very excited to have the children put so much thought into this!

Amanda from North Carolina



The note and fabric from Amanda are wonderful. The dots because she likes dots and the butterflies because "every little girl deserves a quilt with butterflies on it!"
