I like crib quilts rectangular, lap quilts square and baby quilts whichever feels right at the time

Same here...just think it looks better.

thanks, all, for your choices and words of wisdom. i decided on the square. at the time of the decision, that was the prevailing choice. i like it. the light borders are more of a lavender color. i'm hoping the other ladies will let me sandwich and machine quilt it, finishing with a machine binding. they usually birth and tie the charity quilts.

Even borders to my liking.

I like the 42x42

I like rectangles better also, and bet you get half of each suggestion.

Nicely done.

Top one-square in a square-

I like the first one! Good luck in picking which one to go with........Happy quilting :)

I'd go for the longer and as the baby's feet grow longer it will still be a huggie blanket still. For now it will fit for the whole crib maybe and longer legs down the road. Hope that made sense.
