    Baby quilts need to be very sturdy, as they will be washed many times. I'd keep the batting fairly thin, as too poofy a quilt can block a baby's breathing.

    Welcome from Louisiana. Baby quilts are so much fun to do. Just jump and learn by doing.

    There are many videos on Youtube showing embroidery stitches if you need help with any.
