Maya is a going to be a big sister! Family and friends are getting ready for the new baby. Nana says they are nesting, just like the birds they love to watch. But what can Maya do? With help from a little bird, a kind Nana, and scraps of cloth, Maya creates the perfect gift just in time for the new baby.

The Nesting Quilt depicts a loving, multi-generational multi-ethnic extended family and serves as either a new-birth or an adoption title, with strong appeal to grandparents, quilters and birders. The back matter includes instructions for making a child's first quilt.
