Here's my first attempt at a baby quilt. I'm making it for my first grandbaby due on October 18 and it's a Girl!! I'm so excited! I've heard so many here enjoying their grandbabies, I can't wait for mine. And I have another on the way due in January, a Boy! So I'm going to be busy with baby quilts.

I hope she enjoys it! :D

Congratulations on the grandbabies! The quilt is pretty! I just love making quilts for my 3 grandkids... they each have a few. The hard part is selecting a pattern because there are so many to choose from. :)

What a sweet quilt for a baby girl-love your color choices. Congrats on the 2 new babies. I hope she's born on Oct. 18--that's my birthday! Thanks for sharing your pictures and good news.

Iluv2quilt 09-05-2009 06:04 PM

Thank you all so much. I've seen this pattern a lot on the Board and decided to try it. It is very easy to put together making it a lot of fun and gave me opportunity to practice my 1/4" seam.

Susy 09-05-2009 07:29 PM

That is beautiful & congrats on the new additions coming. I just started one with that warm wishes pattern too, I love the way the blocks get framed (I am finding out my 1/4 inch isn't so exact, though.

DJ 09-05-2009 08:04 PM

Beautiful! Congratulations, too!

BarbS 09-05-2009 09:04 PM

So cute! I'm going to be a great grandma next year, and I'm looking at all the baby quilts that has been posted on here.

Where did you get the fabric and the pattern?

craftmama 09-07-2009 12:07 PM

beuatiful job! I am also working on a baby quilt for 2nd grandson. First grandson came on Oct. 5, 2008 and second is coming on Oct.9, 2009. (yes....same daughter). First ones room was in Disney's "CARS" and 2nd one is Disney's Toy Story. The first one was easier, found some material, second one, no material at all with Toy Story, so I am machine embroidering this one.

SSTeacher 09-07-2009 02:25 PM

Precious quilt. We have 5 grandchildren and I am presently making "big" quilts for them. Two done, three to go. They were both "sports' quilts." Enjoy every minute you have with those grandchildren. They grow up so fast. Ours go from age 7 to 20.

Teacup 09-07-2009 06:20 PM

Wonderful quilt! I'm hoping to try this pattern in the near future.

Congratulations on the grandbabies! My first completed quilt (my avatar) was for my first granddaughter, a scrappy Winnie the Pooh (not Disney). The other grandparents and a great-grandmother handquilted it and all our names are on the label. She's 3 next month and sleeps with it every night. You've got a lot of fun ahead of you! Enjoy the babies. You'll have a wonderful time.

oksewglad 09-07-2009 07:59 PM

What a cute quilt! After looking at it one can see what a simple quilt it is to put together. Sometimes simple is the best.

BlueChicken 09-07-2009 08:16 PM

Nice one dude! :-)

I love that pattern, it looks so awesome, and your fabric choices are excellent.

As much as it appeals to be making baby quilts, I'm hoping to not be a grandma for a LOOOOOOOONg time yet! LOL

wvdek 09-07-2009 08:20 PM

Just adorable and congrats twice over. How blessed to have grandchildren.

The fabric came from Joanns and the pattern "Warm Wishes" came off the internet. :D
