    We are expecting two grand children in the spring and I am wondering what everyone's favourite baby quilt patterns are. The choices are limitless so I need suggestions.

    Wow! I love making baby quilts! I found My Fav' pattern in Quick Quilts Magazine, Dec/ Jan 2011, PG. 40. If you enjoy curved piecing or want to learn how or improve your skill, this is the one. It is fast. I just made less blocks so the finished quilt is about 36" square, give or take a little.
    Two colors is all you need, or not! I love polka dots for babies and I add a lace or satin ruffle for a girl or boy. If I ever figure out how to post pictures I will do so. Congrats to all who get to love these babies!

    D9P in pastel colors. Pinwheels are good too.

    I love the Super sized 9 patch because it's fast and easy.

    Plus I can use the cute novelty prints that available.

    I like Billie Lauder's, "There's a Dog on my Quilt." I just made a variation of it with 2 cats for our newest grandbaby.

    You can google for the original Dog version. Here's a link to the cat variation: http://www.easymade.com/video_quilt_pattern.html
