Default What would you do Giftwise?

Well, despite my best efforts, I did not finish both of my twin grandbabies' quilts. Dumb rookie mistakes that created too many unsewing sessions.

I have the little girl's 99% finished (still needs to applique her name on when we know for sure what it'll be), and a label. I am also still debating whether I'll put a fuzzy faux wool lamb applique on. Baby boy's quilt top is finished; that's it.

The baby shower is tomorrow. ( I would have made considerable more progress on the quilt tonight except that I had committed to helping decorate for the shower and make food at my DIL's mom's house-- which took 5 hours,f including travel).

I have two big-ticket gifts off her registry so I won't be empty-handed, but I won't have both quilts ready to give, either. What would you do?

1) give neither quilt till both are finished
2) give one and say the other one will be done soon
3) something else

I'm disappointed in myself and feeling grouchy. But there's no way I could baste, quilt, and bind the second one before tomorrow.
