I just found out a week ago yesterday that my daughter is expecting her first baby (our first grandchild!!). I have made a Beatrix Potter quilt to give her on Mothers' Day, along with a story book that contains all of Beatrix Potter's stories. I'm going to call the quilt "Sleepytime Story Quilt", but I 'm not sure if I should make the label, and write in the book, not knowing the baby's sex or name, or wait until he/she is born.

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

Awe that is so sweet and a beautiful quilt.

I don't know. I'm not a Grandma yet. I'd probably be as excited as you!!!!!!!!! :D:D
My thought though- wait on that part until the baby is born?
Congratulations!!!!!!!

I would and put on the label in anticipation of baby ???
With much love from Grandma ????

I love it! What a great gift for the mom-to-be on Mother's Day! Congrats!

(((hugs))) What I think is you are very excited???" and I am excited for you and your family :) congrats to all

That is one cute baby quilt. I don't know what to tell you to do though :)

Oh,it's a wonderful quilt.So perfect for a sweet little one and a first grandbaby-WOW.

Thanks guys......yes I am VERY excited - and I can't tell my friends for another 2 weeks or so, so thought, why not tell my quilting friends?

i would (and have done so) label it for the "new baby". it is special to have made it in anticipation, don't you think?
