Maybe this is what they were thinking to. Glad you found it and it can get well loved now.
Although I understand how you feel, wow, fancy not using a quilt that someone has made with love for your baby! My friends and I call these "chew and spew" quilts! I've made a few cot quilts, and have always told the parents to use the quilt - its washable. To tell the truth, I think quilts aren't quite as fragile as we think they are, some last and last and last!
