Do you have enough scraps of the fabric to try dying them? I would try dying all but the peacock fabric a darker blue, then the pleats as Libster suggested. (but only if I could test dye first don't want to make the problem worse)

Molly I think it's the light blue ruffle that says girl. If you could change that as Libster suggested or remove the ruffle entirely bet it would work.

Good Morning Ladies..Have gotten a few blocks done so here they are
|
I finished the March group blocks so going to start on these very soon. Love the blocks I have seen. Kass, love the block, outstanding job for sure and you guessed it.....that is exactly why I sent the amount of green that I did, a just in case thought for me.
Agree about the baby gift, colors are okay but I think it is the ruffle also. Ruffles just seem to be a girl genre to me. |
Love those pretty blocks, NanaK...
I guess I'm weird in that I wouldn't use purple for a boy. Well, maybe a little bit if it was mixed with other bold primary colors, but not alone. I think the advice to change the ruffle and dye the purple fabric navy was very good. That actually could work. |
I love the purple and think you could work in the lite blue or is it aqua. the ruffle screams female. Add white or WOW?
|
NanaKathy I love your blocks especially the butterfly. JoanLizBay every time I see your fabric I thing how beautiful is that.
|
If the family doesn't care (ours wouldn't) leave it as is. Ask, after all it is a baby. Otherwise you have lots of options mentioned above. Good luck.
