Aricka's Keepsake

Aricka's Keepsake - In 1999 I downloaded the pattern (and I'm happy to see it back in the Keepsake Quilting catalog this year as a kit) to make a little quilt for my (then) four-year-old granddaughter. She wanted to learn to sew, so I helped her trace out the pattern for the watering can and start her on blanket stitch. It didn't take her long to decide the sewing machine was more her cup of tea (as it is mine). She finished the block on the machine. I used it in the quilt, but expanded and added some alterations of my own to make the quilt larger. It was finally finished this year, entered in the local show, and took Best of Show. I was shocked, Aricka was thrilled.
