It's about time!

Back in March, of 2009, I blogged about Makenna making a quilt for one of her YW projects, then in May of 2009, I wrote about her finishing the top. I am FINALLY blogging about this quilt being complete!! Aunt Susan came over to help her put it on the quilt frame and show her how to tie. Then last Saturday, she headed to grandma Jacksons to bind it.
Here is Aunt Susan threading the needle for Kenna, while Chris, Ali and Emily watch. Aunt Susan and Kenna
Everyone who helped in the tying of this quilt.

It only took her a year and a half to get it done, but it turned out SUPER CUTE!! This was really a group effort. She did the cutting of the squares, then we went to Caldwell where Aunt Anjela helped her sew the top together, Aunt Susan came to help put it on the quilt frames, Aunt Susan, Me, Chris, and Emily all helped her tie it and grandma Jackson helped her bind it. I'm grateful that she had the desire to get it complete, one step closer to her YW medallion!
