  4. You are indeed crafty Wendy! I love to do crafty projects but am not as talented as you.

    I would be honored to have the watermelon quilt for my girls. Addy, my 18 m/o, has a Mother Goose quilt my Mom made. We use it all the time in the living room floor. She and I will cuddle up together and watch her favorite cartoons. It would be great to have a special quilt for my 2 month old, Avery.

    By the way, love your blog!
