I really like it! It may not be what some would consider a traditional baby quilt (soft pastels, cutsy animals etc), but it is still a stunning quilt-PLEASE finish it and post it!

donate it to your local Quilt for Kids,
Go to www.Quiltsforkids.com there should be a spot to look for local chapter. They are always in need for all ages, since all ages of kids get cancer. I love the colors and I am pretty sure, so will teenagers:)

I agree with everyone else...i ilke it, bright colors, nice border. You just need to find the "right" spot to display it.
Have a great vacation!!

It does seem a bit busy but for some reason I really like it. Your description was hilarious!

jdavis 07-14-2010 04:39 PM

I think it's pretty! Maybe you just need to distance yourself from it!

Rachelcb80 07-14-2010 04:59 PM

Omigosh! I am laughing so hard at your description! I think the beaches of Hawaii is a perfect destination for it.

yorkiemom 07-14-2010 06:38 PM

I am learning not to have anything in my mouth when I read the postings! haha. The quilt really is very nice.

omak 07-18-2010 07:54 PM

I think it is beautiful! and, pink isn't my favorite color, but there are sure some pretty things going on in that quilt. Did you want my address????? <wave>

azam 10-02-2010 11:42 PM

Love the colors of your quilt :thumbup:

PamS 10-03-2010 05:30 AM

I understand how you feel - I've made a few quilts through the years I did not like for one reason or another. But, someone else loved them and now gives them a good home.
I love yours - great colors, very warm and snuggly looking. I sure could give it a good home (-;

hperttula123 10-03-2010 06:40 AM

It's wild and I love it! :thumbup:

I like it too. But, I know what you mean. I have a quilt I hate too, but my husband loves it so it has to be used. I have to replace it, but I'm just not in a hurry to make another king size quilt. Even after re-painting - I still hate it!

I think the colours work suprisingly well, it's very pretty.

DoxieMom 10-03-2010 10:15 AM

Your description made me laugh, but I like the quilt! I think the color of the sofa makes it look more intense that it probably would be in a different setting.

I took it out today and still hate it, but I added the border...and I'll eventually convince myself to sandwich it.

:oops: On the bright side, I'm planning a vacation...and I won't have to worry about the quilt police yelling at me when I'm sitting on it on the beach.

I really like it. You could send it to me I would even love a little sand in it...
