Babies are such a blessing. The quilt is beautiful. I crocheted a pink/blue baby afghan for my 7 month old grandson. I am now crocheting a blue based one because he's not so much a baby anymore. He likes it I think because he can put his fingers in the holes. I also quilt but don't do patterns. I like to work with blocks and striped but crocheting is much more portable so I accomplish much more. Anyone who wants to crouchet but doesn't think they can should check out granny square blankets on UTube. It's really not that hard.
Waiting on the baby!
I agree Wagara, it's not hard, I taught myself how to crochet with instructions on the net, it wasn't hard to pick up, I made a ripple baby blanket for DD #1 not long after she married but they haven't 'extended' their family yet. lol
