    I have had this baby fabric scraps forever and decided to try and use some old vintage chenille as backing. (The baby was supposed to be a girl, but is a boy). I hand quilted it and still have the binding to put on. The hand quilting was really pretty easy as the cenille was an old bedspread that had been washed numerous times. I love it.

    Makes me remember a chenille robe I had that was so snuggly. Love your baby quilt.

    This is beautiful for either gender. Love that chenille on the back; good thought. Thank you for sharing.
