I think anything you make for the new baby will be very appreciated. Moms love handmade stuff! Don't stress yourself out making the perfect quilt. This little one is going to love anything you handcraft. It's a gift from the heart.

Hi there, I would just play with it. Lay it down on different parts of the quilt. If the quilt has the fluffy edges around each strip, then for me, it sounds like in the center would be good. What I do on the back is make a label and put it in a lower corner. It sounds like you are doing great!!

I have used the pattern Autumn Tints 2 from quilterscache for several of my baby blankets. Works up pretty quick, I add some sashings between each block and use a couple of different colors for borders.
