Baby quilts for donation.

Our church donates a quilt at baby's baptism, and I decided I would help them out with a few quilts. The request was for some suitable for baby boys, as they've had a run on the boy quilts.

They are all wonderful. I love "boy" quilts.

That might have something to do with having 5 grandsons and only one (all grown up now) grand daughter.

The tradition of giving a quilt to a child at baptism is great.

I love them all and enjoy making baby quilts too. Our church gives out receiving blankets at birth to new babies in the parish, and I help with those too.

Very nice. Is the fabric in the third picture a current fabric and did it have an animal for each letter of the alphabet? And if so, where could I get it. I want to make my great-great-nephew an alphabet quilt to help him learn his letters, and I'd love to alternate each letter with a block representing each letter.
