Do not put stuffed animals in the crib, this can suffocate a baby.

Once a quilt block template has been created it should be put on the fabric lined up with the fabric's grain on one straight edge. Then with either a tailor's chalk or a quilter's pencil it can be drawn around. Folding several layers of the fabric accordion style will create several patches at once. Then after the template has been stapled to the layers one can cut the pieces out. If it is possible, it is of great value to use a cutting mat and a rotary cutter should they be available.
You and your child may choose those quilts that show a print coming from his favorite book. It is in the books that a child usually makes his dreams from.
