Thanks for your comment, I know exactly what you mean about not valuing quilts enough. The quilt was the talk of the baby shower and I don't like to spend money on wrapping paper so this fit me! I have another version of the quilt that's more boy themed because we don't know the sex of this baby! We'll see which one she gets when the baby's born! Her sister's baby got the purple version last month when her baby was born!

With the cost of fabric being what it is, I would want the recipient to value it as much as I do and using it as wrapping tends to give the impression the quilt is just a disposable after thought. Just my .02
