Thank-you so much for the time and effort you put into this tute. I can't wait to make one similar and hope it looks as good as yours.

Ebay does have some copies periodically but I'm told there are similar patterns available, though I don't know their numbers or brand names. I included the size of the original piece. By eyeballing the pieces, you might be able to make some pattern pieces that fit within that perimeter. When I got the original pattern, I knew it would be a big hit and I'm at the age where most of my friends and siblings are settling down and having children so I copied the pattern onto durable brown paper to save for other uses. If you do buy a piece, I would suggest copying it as well, to save the pieces. I've also heard of others who have just cut up baby clothes to use or used a baby clothes pattern. Hope it helps.

Thank you for going to this much effort to teach us how to make this quilt. It is really cute. I will have to make one of these next baby that comes along.

Oh my gosh. I love that! I actually bought that same pattern over 34 years ago, before my first baby was born. The pattern is still sitting in my pattern box - never been sewn :(. Your's makes me want to sew it now anyway!!!
Just adorable.

Thanks for taking the time to do this! There's a lot of work involved and you've done a wonderful job making this quilt!

Thanks for the great tutorial. This is a wonderful quilt. Just one caveat, however. I would stitch through the bow knot to make sure they don't come untied.

That's a great idea, too. I might still do that but for time's sake, I was rushing to get the tutorial done. Thanks!
