Congratulations! I love making baby quilts. After making lots of pastels, a mom pointed me toward an article that said bright colors are good for babies' cognitive development. So now there's the challenge of using brights in a pattern that still looks appropriate for a little one.

Congratulations! I'm in the process of making a baby quilt for my new granddaughter. I'm using 100% cotton fabric in the D9P. My backing is flannel, so it will be soft; and 100% cotton batting (no polyester).
ALL of this I learned from Jenny's tutorials AND the wonderful women (& men) on this site!!!
My suggestions are bright colors in primary colors; all cotton for everything...will hold up much better and machine sew the binding...I also use the zigzag stitch to sew it down..safer for the little ones and I bury all my threads...hope this helps
