What do you think?..... The baby's not due until Nov. 2st.

I'd call this "The First Baby Quilt" and have it ready to wrap him/her in to come home from the hospital. Then when you know the gender, you can make a pink/purple with ruffled edges or a boy quilt.... or 3, 4, 5, 6 or more! Grands are SOOOOO much fun to make quilts for!!!!!
