My precious, sweet grandaughter is now 2 months old. My DD & SIL also chose not to know the sex, so I made her 5 'generic' quilts to get them started. I also bought them a newborn size GIRL outfit and BOY outfit to take baby home from the hospital - not your typical green or yellow! This year I will be making a special quilt just for her.

Congratulations! The joy is just beginning.

Congratulations! I just found out on Christmas Day that I am going to be a grandma again. I already have two adorable grandsons. The new grandbaby is due in August.

Some of the Pooh fabrics are pretty generic, you can't go wrong with Pooh :D:D:D

Congratulaions on such fantastic news..I love babies!...to satisfy your need to make a baby quilt for now and since they don't want to know the sex of the baby do one in pastels that is unisex...yellows greens...and I think pinwheels make a really cute baby quilt...Congrats again and we wont tell anyone...wink

Congrats - what a wonderful Christmas surprise! I vote for starting some receiving blankets now. The store bought ones are never really big enough! And you cannot possibly have too many! The warm wishes pattern makes a very cute baby quilt! Have fun!

Oh That is so exciting! Blessings!

How exciting! Congratulations to all of you. It sounds like you have some good ideas for the quilts you want to make. A couple I have made for friends have featured baby animals and have been well received. Any neutral baby print would work. I am currently working on one that is an Irish chain with baby jungle animals.
Have fun!

THE LITTLE ONE IS GONNA BE A SUMMER BABY.....why not do a quilt with no batting? prints on one side and a plain color back?

I think I would wait until they know the sex of the baby and/or the design of the nursery... Congratulations.
