Do you ever keep quilts made for other people?
#1
I'm a new quilter and I started this quilt for my 1 year old nephew. He's the only one of his generation so far so I love buying him gifts. This would have been the first thing I ever made him.
However... I find myself thinking about keeping it! I picked out the colors because I know his parents don't like "baby" baby thing so it's a quilt of browns, greens, and blues. I love the fabrics and the quilt isn't neccessarily a baby quilt!
I feel guilty. But then I try to tell myself I could always make him another quilt. So I'm very torn.
Does this ever happen to you?
