Aren't you glad this happened to you and not the new mom? She would have been embarrassed to tell you what happened and you might have thought it was something she did! First, I'd be back to the place where the fabric was purchased but I would make another quilt to gift and keep this one for your own use either as an everyday couch throw or to have in emergencies. Perhaps a quilt for the car--good time of year to have one available there for "in case" situations! How disappointed you must be but--again--glad you discovered this before the quilt was gifted!
