I have made two quilts like this using the optical toy designs. The rhyme or song in the middle is something I sang to my children and then to my grandchildren. I hope to make 4 more so each of my grandchildren will have one quilt for their children.

Hi
The fabric was one I have had for years and did not know what to do with it. Tried to sell it. Then when I came up with this itea there it was.
Thanks

I think I have or had this same fabric and a baby quilt panel to match and it was a long time ago. This is a beautiful keepsake. I am hoping as my GKids graduate, to make them all a memory quilt with all their school pictures on. Next year my oldest GD will graduate, so it will be the start of 1 of 3.

Stunning quilt.You have done a great job and 4 more to go. Your grandchildren will be thrilled with them. What size is the completed quilt?

hi
The quilts are different sizes because this fabric had two borders, one smaller than the other. They are 28 1/2" x 34" and 30" x 36". Used up all the fabric I had to make these quilt so the next will use other fabric.

I can read the song, can you share it with us. Beautiful job and the designs are perfect for the fabric. I think I have or had this same fabric and it had a matching baby quilt panel to match. If not the same, very similar.

Sorry that should have said ---can't read the song, but then I remembered we can enlarge the picture. Well done
by gallow 26 Sep 2012
Hi
I tried to down load the rhyme to DBC but could not. Maybe I will try again an other day.

Thanks
by jerrib 27 Sep 2012
I did manage to read the song by right clicking on the picture.
Thank you or trying. Hugs
