My Grandbaby's Quilt

Post by Luvvey »

My first biological grandbaby is due in November so the doctor says. I think it will be due in December. I guess the baby will let us know what month is the true month, lol. Anyway, I am cross stitching blocks for a quilt and I have the A BLOCK done. I am gonna post my progress for you all to see.

The baby due in November or December is my 11th grandbaby but my first biological. The other 10 are from my stepdaughters. Thought I should clear that one up, lol.

Congratulations!
You have a few months to get this finished. But then Nov/Dec won't be long coming...it's March already!! :shock:

A lovely idea to make a quilt for the baby! I did one for my first grandchild. He's nearly 9 and still has it hanging on his wall!!! Refused to give it up for his 2 sisters when they were born!! (they are 7 and 4 months).

This is such a cute alphabet! :wub: It's in my box of alphabet charts to do someday, so I'm really excited to see someone else do it first. Looking forward to your updates.

I was just wondering what the tickers you all use are for? Are those really for how many stitches you are doing? How do you know how many stitches you are going to do?
