"Meadow Frogs" is the name I gave to my Quilt for Kids quilt. I wonder about the little person who will need the comfort of this quilt and hope they do well. I felt a bit sad to know that this quilt is going to a child who is sick and hurting, but glad to contribute something snuggly and soft to help ease their pain. I am happy to see that several other quilters have ordered a kit, pieced and quilted their quilt and are looking to do more.

Thank you Quilts for Kids, this was a fun quilt to make!

PS: I added Nap Time for Pooh and Friends to the package. :-D

And the label for this little quilt.

  13. Yours is cute too!!! I think whoever made these kits up surely had the little ones in mind!!! I think I'm going to tell them that if they have more kits that I'll take more. I really did enjoy assembling mine.
