The baby quilt is done, we are just missing THE BABY! Why must I always be late? I wish I would have taken some better pictures of the quilt but you get the jist of it. I ended up doing a white border around it and then binded it with that green/white fabric. The quilt kind of reminds me of the scrap quilt I made over the Summer- all crazy and stuff. 
I think I used 10 different fabrics- which were then cut into 2 1/2 " strips & sewn together in sets of 3. They were then cut into squares which were, I think, 4 1/2" x 4 1/2". Some parts of the top drive me a bit crazy. I laid them all out before sewing but the crazyness of the top made me miss some pieces that I really wished I would have changed around, but oh well. I'm happy enough with it. 
I love pulling new quilts out of the dryer when they are all wrinkled & soft and squishy. Pure satisfaction. Oh the back of the quilt….
I didn't have enough of the blue, so the back is mostly blue, with a strip of pieced together fabrics and then the red. I actually really like the back.
Anyway- thanks for all the name advice/help. A few of you nailed the name that we are more than likely going with (you smarty pants!) and I am feeling better about it. I kind of started packing a hospital bag, which is good because I've been having pretty steady contractions this evening, so let's keep our fingers crossed for a baby soon! I can't wait for you all to meet him!
