I hope I'm not intruding. I have a pattern for a shaped receiving blanket that is terrific. It eliminates lots of the bulk and snuggles right around the baby. My neice (optional spelling) had twins and I got 2 for her. She loves them. You can make them with single or double thickness. If you are interested, pm me and I'll trace it off and send to you. Don't you just love the 'fresh baby after a bath' smell!
