My little brother is becoming a dad in a few weeks. I thought that I first want to know if the baby is a boy or a girl before I make the quilt . With a girl you can use a lot of pinks ( nice color :c) .
But yesterday I thought: NO , I need to make the quilt right now. I don't know what time we can expect with my dad's ilness . Now I have the time to make one ... So I dig in my stash and this is what came out !! The cradle for the Baby was from my brother when he was a baby . Also my four kids have used it !! The color from the covering is white with a mint dot. So I thought this simple quilt would be perfect in it ! Now I need to quilt it . I am in a hurry because they expected the baby at 8 february !!!

I love it! It is SO SWEET! I think clamshells will go quickly and look good on it....I can't wait to see it quilted!
I think it is so special that the baby will be in the cradle that has been passed down through many children. That makes my heart warm.

How sweet, I think it will be just perfect for this new little one.
I love the idea of the cradle being passed down from one generation to another.
Oh, I love the mint color. That will be great for either sex...a timeless piece.
Lucy, a lovely baby quilt. That's very nice that the cradle is being passed down through the family and all will have used it.
