I agree with giving it to him but just not on Christmas

Give it to him. Christmas is about giving and the giver gets so much more out of it.
I,m sure he will be overjoyed.

Is he saying this so he can surprise you with something? 2 weeks before Christmas sounds fishy to me. If he is serious. then wrap the present and sign the tag to to " Hubby's name and your name from Santa."

I would give it to him and just let him know its for "anyway day" and not just Christmas. He will love it!

In years past I have given him anniversary or valentines day gifts and he has forgotten to get me something and he feels so bad! So should I give the quilt to him or should I use it as a gift next year? What would you do?

.Wrap it and add a note------------next time tell me in January that we won't be exchanging gifts.

OR you could just put it on your bed and forget it's a gift.

wrap it up pretty and put both your names on it and then write that it is from Santa, thats what I would do.

You will both use it most likely so be really excited about YOUR new quilt, you could even ask him "Did you do this, after telling me not to get you anything?" If he has a sense of humor he will enjoy the playacting, and have a new quilt! Linda

I like this solution!!

I would give it to him. As someone mentioned tell him it is to keep you both warm. Whatever you do, I'm sure he will know it was made and given with love.

Give it joyfully!
