Little Man's quilt...

With 3 weeks to go, Em finished the quilt she was working on for Connor.  

She did an awesome job on it.  Her first quilt from following a pattern. 
She's definitely hooked now.  
Connor now has a HUGE supply of blankets to keep him warm.
At least for his first year.  :)
There are more plans for some more quilts from her, but she's got a couple of other little gifts she has on her to-do list that are priority.
Then she is talking about making a quilt to display at the fair!
Can't wait for that to be finished.

    ps. I was curious if you had a preference for yarn to crochet with? Do you use cotton?
