Really very cute. I made my daughter a patchwork jacket when she was 8. Save it. My daughter still has it and she is 41 now. The one you made may be small enough to place in a shadowbox frame with a background collage composed of all the photos you’ve taken of her in the clothes you make her over the years. It would be a cherished 30th birthday gift.
