I agree with Geri. I think sometimes we make the quilt we would like ourselves. With the last 2 baby quilts I made an effort to find out the theme/color preferences of the recipient and both were overjoyed-they were simple "brick" quilts with a little applique but even the attendees at the shower loved them because they fit the colors/theme. Not like just the some pink and blue that was popular when I had my first child back in the dark ages, as much as I love that.
