That is better than what ds wrote on my table once when both grandpa's and grandma was there. Let's say it was bad enough I called and cancelled the cable tv hook up right then and there. To be fair he was
5 or 6. He is lucky to be alive today after that stunt. He learned how to ref> Tell us about that blackboard fabric. I've thought it would be fun to makeSewing with DGS#1 :)

I missed the original post but glad I caught it here. Great picture, adorable grandson and nice work. I hope you let him know about all your quilter friend complimenting him on his work. He should feel proud of what he accomplished!

Howdy! Cute!!! The boy and the quilt.
What kind of bread were y'all making? (looking around your kitchen )

That looks really great Sandy. What a fun idea for a small quilt that he could make. I enjoyed a very slow scroll down, through all those lovely baby quilts! . In message , Sandy Foster writes
Wonderful!! Great project, and very handsome grandson! Dancing in the moonlight for ya both!

Thanks, Karen. :D
Thanks, Pat. :) The photo makes Benjamin look a bit strange -- I think he was about to blink. But it's the best I could do, since he wasn't able to stand still for long because of his excitement. LOL!
Thanks! :)
None at that time, Sandy. My breadmaker "lives" there on the island so that I can bake bread anytime I want/need to. ;) Did you notice the springform pan on the counter at the back? I was getting ready to make a coffeecake for yesterday's little get-together at my house. And I guess it's a good thing the laundry room door was closed! LOL!
I haven't talked to him since Monday, since I was busy all day yesterday. But I'm going to tell him today and show him his photo on my web page before I take it down. He is very proud of his accomplishment, and I've told him I am, too! :D
Sandy: What a handsome boy... and a wonderful quilt project. BTW: I jsut noticed your twist and turn baby quilt for GS #4. I really like how you added the pinwheel borders. Clever. PAT in VA/USA
Thanks, Pat -- on both counts. Those pinwheel borders didn't quite come out as I'd hoped -- two colors alternating don't always "work" if the same two colors are in the background. ;)
Oh Sandy, I can't wait to do "Nana" stuff like that. Sounds like a real memory made that day. Linda in Tx
Howdy! Hey! I have to know what to beg for and from whom, don't I?!!!?
Besides, Sandy said she was actually making goodies for her group yesterday; now I wonder if there were leftovers... .
Meanwhile, as I have no grandchildren at this time, I babysit at church, and my current favorite little girl will turn 1 in August; time enough to make her a quilt (which her mom expected as a shower gift last year ).
Rootling the stash, Ragmop/Sandy-- I call it keeping my eyes open ;->
It was, Linda! :D
Yup -- there were leftovers. Unfortunately, they won't last through the mailing process. ;) But I know some little guys who'd like to help get rid of them for me.
What fun for you and him!! He did a great job!
It truly was fun, Donna -- and I agree about how he did. I was amazed! :D
