I make quilts for the NICU at my local hospital - have been doing it for several years now. They usually measure 22 x 22 to 24 x 24, depending on the pattern I decide to use. Fabric is always washed first, 100% cotton only. Warm and Natural for the batting. When I bring them in, I hear, "Hey - it is the quilt lady", and there is usually a gathering. Embarrassing at times, but I know that they are appreciated.
