I am currently working my way through breast cancer and I would want no pink ribbons in my quilt. I second the idea of a fleece (2 layers with the back larger so you bring it around for a binding) for travel and a pretty quilt for home. The color pink is okay as long as there's a reason for it in the color scheme, but not the predominant color. I love pink, but October (BC awareness month) about spoiled it for me.
