Today was one of the most exciting days for me. I met my 4 week old baby granddaughter for the first time.
I have been excited since I first found out my son and his wife were expecting. I did not realize how wonderful it would be to hold her in my arms for the first time. Someone wrote on my Facebook the following comment, Maggie you have the look of love written all over you. Such a wonderful blessing !!!! I would say that about sums up what I'm feeling.
Carissa Marie I love you and I know I am going to love being your Grandma.
I am so happy today. I finished the quilt for Carissa, my new granddaughter. I was supposed to meet her on Saturday and our plans got changed. Now I will be meeting her for the first time on Friday and her quilt be be ready for her. Carissa will be 4 weeks old on Friday and is my first grandchild. I am so anxious to hold her in my arms.
I am pleased with the way that this quilt turned out. It is a ragged quilt and has not been washed and dried yet. My understanding is that is what makes the edges fray and gives it the appearance of being ragged.
This is my first ragged quilt and after making it, I now have ideas to make the next one better. I’ve seen some cute ideas and am eagerly looking forward to trying them out.
