This weekend I spent some time sewing for the preemies at Women's and Children Hospital in Lafayette. Our grand-daughter was born there last year and spent a couple of months in the NICU. You can copy the pattern and tut on my blog:

Thanks for looking!

That is so thoughtful. I had a friend that had twins that were 2lb 3 oz and 2 lbs 7 oz. This would have been so nice for them. I think I might be copying your pattern to make some of these for the nicu. It would be a great way to use up some fabric. :) Thanks for posting this and I bookmarked you blog.

Bless you. My oldest granddaughter, Miranda, was born at 28 wks, weighing 2 lb 4.9 oz. Tiny little thing, as you well know from yours weighing the same thing. She spent 3 months in the hospital. She is a SR in high school this year. Smart as a whip and plans to go to nursing school to be an NICU nurse. I told her she will give HOPE to the parents/families of the babies in NICU. It is like a world of it's own.

Do you always use cotton or will flannel or knit fabric work as well?
