I just call it that, basically just start making things now for a future grand baby. Basically like a regular hope chest only for the baby. Start putting in a few blankets, afghans, outfits etc.
I love this quilt, its adorable.

So, what do you think?

What a darling little quilt. I'm sure your friend's baby is going to love it. I like the embroidery but also like the nice bright, happy colors you have chosen. Great job. Thanks for sharing.

Darling. Very cute. And I don't like 1930's fabrics

Cindy,
It's the machine embroidery applique designs. These designs are from emblibrary.com. Yes, I cheated. I didn't do the applique the normal way. For the life of me, I could get the satin stitch to look right.
