According to Ms. Jan, the box arrived in record time. I waited to open it - I had grandiose plans to wait until the baby arrived, but I opened it early just in case it would "need" to be washed.
(Yes, we are washing everything before the baby has a chance to get it dirty. Yes, we live with 2 cats, so the whole concept could be an oxymoron with all of their cat fur floating around...)
All of the contributors can be found on the sidebar - Round Robin Quilters. 15 people whose blogs I check as often as they post (Thank you blog lines) were able to keep this a secret. We have a yahoo group too... I am still in shock over the suprise...
The best part - I no longer have to fell guilty about abandoning my 30's baby quilt. :o) The second best part - all of the 30's kitties!
Without further ado - Gift quilt for the baby:
& the label (Whats not to like about that one!)
I love the use of the yellows & greens so the touches of pink & blue do not make it say boy or girl. :o) More photos can be seen on Beth's blog.

How absolutely, wonderfully marvelous... the process and the gift - what a treasure (for so many, many reasons).
I'm sooo glad you like it! I hope the kitten likes it as much :) It sure was a fun one to quilt. We are good secret keepers aren't we? hehehehe

What a beautiful gift, and how thoughtful of your friends to make that for you. I hope that the labor and delivery goes smoothly for you.
Isn't that an adorable quilt?! And I love the label, too. Really an heirloom...you'll have to hang it on the wall for kitten to enjoy from the crib.
Two days and counting...thinking of you!
What a sweet gift from some sweet ladies. The kitten will like it.
I'm such a dip. I left Julie's name off the label! Can you write it in for me? Thanks, jan.
I'm soo glad you are tickled by our little project! I loved pulling out my older Aunt G's just for you. Purple and kitties you just can't go wrong! Everyone did a wonderful job on it!
Ohhh, what a beautiful quilt. I can't wait to see pics of the "family".
I am so glad you are starting another challenge. Just because you have a baby does not stop you from being a QUILTer!!!
