Oh my goodness--how very sweet. I love making ragged flannels. I can't wait to see your blue one.

Just a note--someone mentioned on here months ago about ragged flannels being unsafe for very small children. I think it was something about the chance they could pull the ragged parts and choke on them?? I'm not sure. But--until that beautiful wee girl is bigger, she could just lay on the striped side. :-D

Thanks Barnbum for the info. I had not thought of that. I will make sure my daughter knows and is careful. The baby is not even here yet, but I will still let her know. I am sure she will have lots of quilts to choose from

Please do be careful with it until baby is about 3 years old. Apparently, they chew on it and the threads come off in their mouths causing a choking hazard. Maybe she can hang it on the nursery wall when the baby starts moving around and move it back down when she is older.
