Quilts

I think I told you awhile ago that I made quilts for my new nieces and nephew. Well I didn't post them at that time because they were gifts and I didn't want my sisters to see the finished projects before they were done. Well they have since received the package and so I can post them now.

This one is for my nephew Drew (my sister Sally's boy). He was born last June and I am just now getting it done (usually I give it to them for their first Christmas). Anyway, I saw this Debbie Mumm material and KNEW I had to have it. You see my BIL Max (Drew's daddy) has in his profile at his work (he is a public speaker) "ran from a grizzly bear in Yellowstone Park". So I saw this adorable material and thought it would be perfect for Max's son! I must say I think this is my very favorite quilt that I have ever made!
This one is for AnLi (my sister Sally's girl that they just adopted from China!!!). The inside is just that same yellow color (no stars, so I didn't fold the corner down). I think it is very cute, but no story behind it! lol
These pictures my sister sent me of the kids and their blankets. Here is AnLi opening the box.

Drew checking out his new blanket.

AnLi LOVING her blanket!

Drew all covered up!

I am so glad that the kids enjoy them. I am going to do my best to get a pic of all the quilts I have made for my nieces and nephews. I never even thought of taking pictures of them until these three (yes there is one more that I did at this time, but I FORGOT to take the pic of it before I sealed the box to be mailed! lol So my other sis Bonnie is supposed to take the pic for me. If not, I will get them myself when I go visit in July! lol)
