Thanks everyone. It is a VERY busy quilt but I think it has possibilities as a play quilt. The back is the same material. Someone asked about the letters. I copied them from "PS I love You Three!" by Lynda Milligan and Nancy Smith. They were fused then I stitched around them with a narrow blanket stitch and used that as part of the quilting. I intended to put them on baby blocks but made the blocks before I realized the letters would be too big so changed the design. Sharon, your right they are never too old even at 56. Jayne

Yes, it's a gift. A good friend of my husband's just had his first baby. I'm not real close to the family so I admit I hadn't keep track of the due date. Two weeks ago DH said "Were you going to make a baby quilt for J's little one? It's due next week." Yikes! Of course, it doesn't take long to make a baby quilt and this simple pattern went together quickly. We'll be visiting one evening this week to see the baby and deliver the quilt.

Rebecca, That's just STUNNING! Easy to do, really? Looks complex at a glance. But I would like to take a minute to say a couple of things. While I'm swamped w/ ongoing quilts (& am job hunting too), this design is definately on my mental list of things to do next (or soonish)! It's especially helpful color & designwise to see a number of interpretations of each of these related designs. Inspires so much color thinking for me, I especially appreciate this kind of thread! Thx to all for sharing!

That is adorable, but you are wrong. You ARE a quilter! And to the Debby Downer questioning the use of it as bedding, obviously, babies use blankets for many things besides nighttime covers. Bundled in a stroller or in someones arrms, or under them on the sofa or floor, etc. It’s so gorgeous I would probably use it as wall art.

Your family is just the luckiest -- to receive such wonderful hand crafted gifts. I bet they don't even realize that not everyone is so fortunate.

arcy, quilts and blankets are used everywhere that they have always been, of course: playmat on the floor, cozy cover on Grandma’s lap, and of course for covering the crib, like a bedspread, when baby isn’t sleeping. My baby quilt became a topper on my bedspread when I moved to a bed, then was my lap blanket for tv and reading. And DS’s crib-size quilt became a window covering when his window in the new house proved drafty! Baby quilts are forever and everywhere!

Rose, that's a beautiful quilt, and you are a quilter now, and a good one. Arcy, they keep changing the rules and recommendations for babies, so I don't know what's allowed or when. I suppose I'll learn some new things when my great-grandson gets here.

Your quilt reminds me very much of one my mother and I put together for my first grand son, her first great. She embroidered all the animals and I sashed as you did only in blue. Sadly, she died a few months before Adam arrived. I know the quilt has been saved.

I love your version.
