I commend you for considering the "browns" even though you already had a top made for the baby. Poor baby is all I can say. I know how new moms like to have "themes" for their nurseries, etc. so when I make a baby quilt, I tell the new mom that this is not a quilt for the nursery. It's for the baby to drag around, to nap on, and to cuddle, and to bring along in the car. And I've see these "non-theme" quilts used.
