My mother makes a special quilt for each of her grandkids. BubTar got his for his first birthday and KayTar got hers yesterday, although it is considered a late third birthday present. Her quilt is so full of her personality, I just love it. It has her favorite colors and favorite things, animals, letters, flowers, books, hats...all sort of good things. It turned out just right, as did BubTar's almost 5 years ago! (I can't believe he's nearly 6!) Without further ado, the quilts.

And a old, terrible quality photo of wee little BubTar and his quilt.
PS: KayTar saw my post and said, "My new BLANKEY! That's AWESOME!" She cracks me up. Then she added, "Look at KayTar, she's a QUEEN." Indeed.

Haha "She's a QUEEN!"
Beautiful quilts. What a special tradition!!
Those are so beautiful and special, Kyla. Just like your kids
What beautiful quilts! Munchkin has one from her gramma, and I just treasure it. I love the photos of Kaytar lounging, like a Queen, obviously :-)
How did I miss out on learning skills like this? Oh ya, I didn't give a fart when I was younger. Beautiful work!
So lovely.
It's good she recognizes her royal roots :) Oh my, she makes me laugh!
She'll have nothing but sweet dreams with that wonderful quilt.
Oh and what a cutey little BubTar! They grow up too up fast.
Oh, you have a queen, too?
I love the quilts. What a special gift from their grandmother.
What precious and beautiful gifts from your mother.

she is a queen, yes she is that sweet girl.
What a sweet gift for the 'Tar "babies."
Those are wonderful - so sweet that you (and they) have them.
What a wonderful gift.
Those are very special, Kyla. Thanks for sharing the pictures. It's kinda clear that Kay-Tar's in love with hers, eh?
She is a complete queen, and he is a king.
Sadly right now, a king with an ear infection.
I love the tradition of quilting. it ccarries with it such a history of a women's round circle. Much like what we are doing. making a quilt. Our fabric words.
I love the quilts. My sister and I made one for our brother. Have not had time since then!
Those are so, so special!
Gifts like those are priceless!
