I always use cotton. It breathes and few babies have allergies to cotton. I also wash the gowns in Dreft and rinse a couple of times before donating them. Oh, I also place them in zipper-top bags, so they don't have to worry about any allergens. The nurses are always so happy when I deliver a few.
Our dil is due to have another in a couple of weeks. Over the weekend she told me we're past the preemie stage. That's what got me thinking of these, so I had to make a few. I figure I'll deliver them when we go for a visit.

My dear wife has been a NICU nurse for almost 28 years, now. These amazing people have such great hearts. Many a NICU nurse have clothed a child in their care (especially when they come into this world and have absolutely nobody to clothe them.) I have also seen these ICU angels decorate the beds and isolettes with gifts -- including making a small quilt for them to travel with.
I have sent this blog spot to my wife's email (her computer is upstairs in her office) so she can let other NICU nurses she works with and who also sew know about these patterns.
I am always in awe of these wonderful people.
