      To my babies and their babies. Love you all.

      Acknowledgments

      To the entire staff at C&T Publishing—Thanks to all of you for your support and for your dedication to publishing the best books possible.

      Special thanks to the following individuals:

      Lynn Koolish and Helen Frost, my editor and technical editor, respectively—I am truly lucky to be able to work with the two of you. Your expertise and knowledge have made me a better author. This book in particular posed some challenges, and I really do appreciate your efforts.

      Diane Minkley—Once again you have finished my quilts so beautifully. Thank you.

      My daughters, Cody Schaefer Trinko and Alexandria Schaefer May—Thank you for your helpful insights and ideas for this book and for giving me such fun, bright, and beautiful grandchildren to love. I’m so proud of you both for the loving moms you have become.

      Last but not least, my husband, Gary Schaefer—Thank you for all you do for me.

      Introduction

      There really is nothing more rewarding than making a quilt for a child who will cherish it for years to come. My children all had their favorites. They were used not only for warmth and comfort but also for doll parties and tent forts. Several were literally loved to pieces. Kids will love this collection of fun projects designed specifically with them in mind.

      Whether you are a first-time sewist or an experienced quilter, you will find projects in this book that are appropriate for your skill level. The designs use machine appliqué and simple piecing techniques. There are quilts, growth charts, place mats, nap mats, a drum seat, and more that kids will love. The appliqué designs can be reduced or enlarged to make fun wall decor or stitched to a ready-made T-shirt for a quick and easy gift.

      I hope that in the following pages you will find the perfect project to inspire you to create something special for the little one in your life.

      General Instructions

      Rotary Cutting

      I recommend that you cut all the fabrics used in the pieced blocks, borders, and bindings with a rotary cutter, an acrylic ruler, and a cutting mat. Trim the blocks and borders with these tools as well.

      Piecing

      All the piecing measurements include ¼˝ seam allowances. If you sew an accurate ¼˝ seam you will succeed! My biggest and best quiltmaking tip is to learn to sew an accurate ¼˝ seam.

      Pressing

      For cotton fabrics, press the seams to one side, preferably toward the darker fabric. Press flat and avoid sliding the iron over the pieces, which can distort and stretch them. When you join two seamed sections, press the seams in opposite directions so you can nest
