WIP's now done for NICU babies-scrappies too.
I promised myself to send baby quilts to the NICU where our little GS was born and finally living up to the promise. These panels were given to me by a friend and I added lots of black and red.[ATTACH=CONFIG]402699[/ATTACH][ATTACH=CONFIG]402700[/ATTACH] And a close up of the quilting on Tweety.[ATTACH=CONFIG]402701[/ATTACH][ATTACH=CONFIG]402702[/ATTACH] I used some heart fabric in the borders and decided to try quilting hearts as well.[ATTACH=CONFIG]402703[/ATTACH] Next one is still a flimsy--but have the backing and batting waiting to be sandwiched.[ATTACH=CONFIG]402704[/ATTACH]
This one's also heading to the NICU--blocks made up of scraps. A fun one to make, but took more time![ATTACH=CONFIG]402705[/ATTACH][ATTACH=CONFIG]402706[/ATTACH]

actually--how does that work? Does the hospital keep them or give them away?

They are beautiful. I have made quilts for NICU . One nurse said they wanted quilting closer together because of the puffing when washed. Could I ask how close you did your quilting? I try to do about 1 inch.
