If it walks like a duck and talks like a duck....

Becky was born on her due date, November 22, 1981 and I finished her baby quilt in spring 1992. When we pulled this one out to photograph it, I noticed it has started to age somewhat, some fading. But still cute. How my quilt designs have changed since this. This one looks soooo innocent! Becky was a much sought after child. I was 23 when her older sister, Jamie was born and that was at the end of the "money making 1970's" when economic times were pretty good. I so much wanted to have a second child because I had had siblings and I knew how important they were to my formation as a human being. I wanted the same experience for Jamie and I really wanted another child but convincing my husband took some time. So 3-1/2 years later, Becky arrived, mostly due to my woman wiles, I think. Now Becky is a grown up woman and has learned to sew herself. Will we see Becky's quilts coming out of Plano, Texas some day? You never cant tell! More pictures:
