What is a good design for a wall hanging for a new baby boy named Titan?

I am looking for serious answers only. I am days away from becoming a grandmother. I used to do needlcrafts, and cannot find anything online, unless I want to order it.

What is a good design for a wall hanging for a new baby boy named Titan?
a huge cotton or batting stuffed "T"

Reply:That sounds like a good idea Sandy. I did make a quilt for my grandson with a solar theme. I used half triangle blocks 12" sq. for the background. These are easy to sew together quickly. I use black and brights, but my gr.son is older. Could use any color combo you wish. I used rough-edge applique to sew onto the background, a large half moon with spiraling arms, planets that I cut from different colored fabrics. Like a forest fabric with water for Earth. If you have a sewing machine with fancy stitches, can incorporate those into the design. I did for the rings around Saturn, stars, comets,etc.





Also, go look at a fabric store, Wal-Mart even. Look thru the crafts stuff and many fabrics now have themes that are easy made into baby items. Check it out. A design can be made into more than just quilts. Some have a complete kit to embroider for babies. Have fun and look around for ideas. Library books also can give you ideas on designs.





The new fleece fabric makes into just about anything and the edges do not ravel. Many, many colors and prints to choose from. These make excellent blankets.
Reply:How about a planatarium? Titan is, in fact, Saturn's largest moon and the second largest moon in the Solar System. It's also one of the only heavenly bodies with a nearly hospitable atmosphere and liquid hydrocarbon lakes.
