It kind of nips some of the anxiety of cutting and sewing right out of the way for me. I love sewn items, but I always feel nervous about sewing because of the speed of the machine (though mine is slow) and worrying that I will mess up the fabric. In its way knitting is much more forgiving. I love the idea of just making squares and then cutting them to the right size.

I've never really thought of quilting as something you can do free-form. I guess you can! What a wonderful project. I’ve never really thought of quilting as something you can do free-form.

Must look through my fat quarters with inspiration in mind! Happy Birthday by the way and yes you can still think of yourself as a girl after age 30. I tell my daughters that I am only growing younger with each year and am determined to live long enough to be a problem to them. How wonderful.

My almost 3-year-old just last night spent her first night out of the crib and in her toddler bad. It made me so sad to see no hand knit/quilted blanket over her for the occasion. This is definitely inspiration. How precious! My almost 3-year-old just last night spent her first night out of the crib and in her toddler bad.

Let the record show that a number of babies are due to arrive among friends and family before there'll ever be a Baby Garter to knit or quilt for. I'm not sure which baby will receive this quilt... depends when it's finished. If I slack off on the quilting and binding long enough, I suppose it could be for a child of my own, but I'd really like to see this project through more quickly than that! Confession, though: there's a toddler-size sweater (okay, it has no sleeves yet, so right now it's more of a poncho) I couldn't bear not to save for a daughter of my own hidden away in the closet. It's been there for four years. Oh wow, I made you guys suspicious, eh?
