Baby quilt for my first grandchild.
 

I have loved every minute of it! My son and daughter-in-law are having a girl, due February 1st. Today is her baby shower. I had doubts that I would finish the quilt for the shower, and wasn't going to rush myself. But once I got started, I pushed myself and I couldn't put it down. Applique is so easy with the heat n bond and machine zig-zag! I have never done prarie points before this either, and I am pleased with my result.

Can we see a picture? Congratulations on the granddaughter and getting the quilt finished. I am sure that it is very pretty. BrendaK

I wanted to show a picture, but I don't know where the icon is so I can post one...

Congratulations to us. I am going to have my first grandchild in March and is going to be a girl too. Your thread has come just at the right time. I was about to write in to ask what kind of wadding I should use for a new born baby quilt? All advice would be appreciated.

I love to make baby quilts & we live in the South so I like to use flannel as batting. But if I'm making one to go to colder climates I use Warm & Natural. (we have 9 grandchildren & 10 is due in May0
Congratulations to both you ladies
