When I make baby quilts, I usually make two: one for "show" if they want it for that, and one to be drug around and thrown on the floor, taken outside, used to make forts with, etc....in general, played with and enjoyed. And I usually (but not always) make a pillowcase to place them in...just looks neater and supplies a place to store the quilt in if they don't use it now and again. And I tell the parents to use them both and enjoy them. If they wear out, I will make another (have to be careful about saying that now since I'm 72....
)...
