I had no idea! How sweet! I would be totally touched to have ANYTHING! I am thinking of painting the nursery in a green colour, since the gender is unknown. My 'fave' colour is blue..he he he..should I tell you MY sizes?

OMG that would be so fun! I'll buy you maternity clothes!!! LOL

As far as baby things, I have something up my sleeve but you will have to wait. It takes a LONG time to make, about 3 months as you need to cur? the paper or something like that.

But you know what I can buy you? A scrapbook! You will need to take tons of pics and what better way to cherish those memories than to start out with a pregnancy scrapbook and work your way up?

I thought I might suggest to those who aren't as talented as others on here, or just don't lots of money (both are me!) that a card is a wonderful and just as touching way to say congrats! Hee hee! Thats what I'm doing since I'm on a low budget of nothing and have no talent expet for writeing, Hee hee hee!

I can just see the mailman pulling to her house saying, I have 200 boxes in the back of my truck for you, how do you want me to bring them up the drive way?? LOL!!!

Please know right up front....I am creatively challenged and don't even sew buttons back on! However, my assistant principal is VERY creative and has made one of these for all retiring members of our staff and for babies. She designs a quilt and cuts out squares of various sizes and then has people write (in permanent cloth pen) a thought for the person and then she makes the quilt when they have all been collected.

Now...that being said....remember how I started this post. I can't sew it, but, would be happy to create a square if someone else likes to do those sorts of things and is good at it wants to attempt it.

Don't you love how I pass the buck....but, Johanna wouldn't even want what I would ever sew in her house!! lol My sewing frightens people. lol

Mugsy, how would you like to mail us each a square so we could write on it? Is that a good idea? It sounds like a very special quilt and if they could make it, that would be great!

[mugsy]

I don't have a problem cutting the squares and mailing them, but, I don't know who would make it, because my asst. principal wouldn't have time. Any takers???

[Stenograsaurus]

Hey, Mugsy, how about bringing some to the May Findlay (sp?) Dog Park Gathering and people could sign them there? Do you know how many she could make by then?

I bought the yarn today. Decided to go with green since Johanna said the baby's room was going to be green. It will work for either one, I think. Got one other project to finish before I can start on this one. But, I can whip out a baby blanket in 3 12 hour work days

Yep, I got some things today at Hobby Lobby. This is going to be so fun!

Corinna - you sure? 12 x 12-inch square - how far in from the edges should be left clear for stitching together to make the quilt?

[Corinna]

I use 1/2 seams . I don't mind at all I just have one quilt left to make for my son .
