I made a quilt ONCE using scraps from all the material left over for the dresses that I had made my little one. I didn't know any better so I used 2 inch squares or was it less? I don't recall. I know that it took me a LONG with with my daughter eager for me to finish.

I think if I were to make another one I would be sure to use MUCH larger peices.

I have made pillows using quilting kind of. I made a square sewed it onto a solid peice of faberic and STUFFED it! I actually need to make another one of the 'quilited' square pillows for my Grandmother. She has one that I made maybe ten years ago when I was just messing aorund to come up with a gift for her. It has been repaired by one of my Aunts and she still uses it in the nursing home today. I am somewhat proud that she uses it and ashamed that I didn't make it better. LOL, like I knew what I was doing or even know now! My mom wants me to make one with photos on it to replace the one that my grandmother has been using all these years.

PS. side not totall off topic! I saw the Pope today! <G>
