Leslie cleaned out her older fabrics and gave me a huge bag full (thanks, Les!). When I brought them home, much to my joy, my daughter's eyes got big and it was like Christmas morning for her too. I let her go through them to get a quilt pulled together. It took several months, and really I'm surprised she hung in the entire time with it. I kept having to give us some time inbetween turns at the machine. She didn't care about laying out the blocks when they were done, but the rest was all her. When I get it quilted and bound I'll put it on her bed.
