If it were me I wouldn't make it. My friend requested I make her grandson a quilt when he was born. The colors matched the room, colors I hated and hated working on. When it was fisished I sent it off to NY I live in Ohio. I never got a call or thank you so I finally called to see if it arrived. It had they loved it but if I didn't make the call it would have never been acknowledged. It was used as a wall hanging until he was 2, they didn't believe in putting a quilt/blanket on the baby for fear of him getting wrapped in it. Now a secod grandson was born I started a quilt and never finished it. I thought if they couldn't call or write to say thank you I would not give it as a gift. I put love into what I do and if people acknowldge what I do I would rather buy them something and use my time spent on making something for someone else or for me.
