    How about the drunkard quilt pattern.
    What was their thinking? Quilters have more morals than to make a baby/child gift from this pattern.

    I would make *Baby crib sheet sets with this print or Nursery room curtains(*flat sheet, fitted sheet, and pillowcase).

    Oops, did not see the alcohol/wine bottles.....but the crib sheet idea is still on my list if I came across this print.

    That's too perfect. Why not!

    No way would I use this in a baby quilt. The elephants are cute, but the connotation is just not right.

    Okay, I've had a little coffee and here's my thought.
    A cute apron. I have a friend, a delightful person, who loves retro and loves a little nip too. I could see her wearing an apron like this and whooping it up at cocktail hour while she fixes some little tidbits. I am serious. She'd flip over this fabric. Hmmm, will have to get some projects done and consider this.

    I like the fabric, but would not even think about using it for a baby...what were they thinking? That material is not suitable for a baby at all ( or even a child). I think it would look cute in a quilt for an adult, maybe a suare about 6" or so surrounded by a frame. I could see an apron or a small wall hanging for a bar area. Maybe a mugrag or coaster or something like that.
