Babies, Kids and Small Quilts

I have completed a couple of baby and kids quilt made to order lately.
It is incredibly satisfying to make something for a wonderful boy or girl and imagine the happy kid and family /especially the kid/.

I was told one of the quilts was happily carried around the house by the kid during his birthday party.

I even had the chance to actually meet a kid I made a quilt for last year.
It is a great feeling to see the kid and receive his sweet hug. This makes me happy.

Another great thing about baby quilts, apart from being made for fabulous little persons, is the fact they are small scale projects and I see the result quickly. Maybe I will start a small scale projects routine. This makes me really productive. It also means sweet baby gift wraps which as an added bonus experience.
