Quilt from NICU Blankets

Well, it is done! Nannie has completed Avery Kate's rag quilt made from all the baby blankets used in the NICU. It turned out fantastic! I am honestly not sure which side I like better. Avery loves it. Thank you Nannie!

On the ragged side Avery's name is monogrammed in green. There are also two special squares, both pictured below. One is Nannie's square, so that Avery grows up knowing who made the quilt for her. The second square has all Avery's birth stats, so that she grows up knowing how started. The flip side of the quilt has Avery's name in brown, also pictured below.






 Avery is growing up so fast. I figured since I seldom post on the blog anymore, that when I do, I better include a picture of Avery in my post. She is 2 1/2 and all caught up. No more adjusted age! She weighs about 29 lbs and is already wearing 3t. She talks up a storm and loves school. She also loves her Nannie and Papa. That is Papa in the picture below with Avery. We stopped by today to see them and were surprised with the finished quilt. This picture is actually from today's visit.
