Quilt made for baby boy...now what
 

I made this quilt for a grand nephew-to-be. We found out that he hasn't survived his gestation. I finished the quilt for him anyway. RIP Wyatt.

Little I Spy quilt.

I will hang onto it for another baby boy. Yep, and oops, I broke it. I didn't have a pattern for the wonky blocks and my poor dyslexic brain finally gave out in the last row while at the same time my laziness kicked in and I decided to leave it since I was out of the purple BG fabric.

Sorry to hear about your loss. It is hard to lose a little one.

The mistake in the quilt? Didn't even notice until you pointed it out! Then it took some time for me before I figured out what you were talking about. It is not noticeable. Very cute quilt.

The quilt looks wonderful to me. I really like the wonky blocks for I Spy.

I am so sorry about your little grand nephew. God bless you and especially his parents.

It took me awhile to find it. Any baby will love that quilt and not notice anything that is not the way we think it should be. Sorry about the grand nephew-to-be. No matter the age a baby's death is sad.

Well, that is an iguana and they pretty much do what ever they want. I hope you and mama and grandmama are healing over your loss.

very nice!!!!!

Dear Tracy...so sorry to hear of the loss of the nephew. That is always sad no matter age, etc etc etc. Will put family in my prayers for sure. As to the quilt, I see NOTHING wrong with it. I really like it. THANKS

I like how you put it on point

So sorry for your family's loss. It is a wonderful quilt.

Sorry about the baby, it is sad.
I did not notice the block dancing to a different drummer, but I agree with tesspug, the iguanas do their own thing.

LOL, thanks!

So sorry for the loss the the baby. My niece lost her son 4 days before his scheduled birth day., and we buried him on the day he was to be born. I had completed a quilt for his room which was elephants and was reluctant to give it to my niece following Liam's passing. She asked me for the quilt anyway. She says she will wrap herself in it when she wants to feel closer to the little one. So sad to lose a child.

So sorry to hear about little Wyatt.. my thought was also along the lines of wondering if mom/parents would still want the quilt for the same reason fratcat mentioned...wrapping up in it and feeling the love you put into it, sew_Tracy..as well as closeness to the lil one...

Aww such a sweet quilt. I really like it. I am so sorry for little Wyatt.

One of the Cutest ispy I've seen! Pesky iguana and all! You're very thoughtful.

It turned out really great! Sorry for the family loss.

Very nice baby boy quilt.

So sorry about the baby, the quilt is wonderful!!

That is a very cute and clever quilt.

Maybe ask Mom what she thinks? (Also a difficult question - )

I think some people would be grateful that the loss of their baby has been acknowledged -

From what I've read, the loss of an unborn child is as devastating as the loss of one that has been out for a while.

I like this.

I made a quilt for my grandsons and they were born prematurely and passed away. My DIL did not know about the quilt. I made her another one as a comfort quilt. Two and a half years later, the twin's quilt is still hanging in my studio on a quilt rack. For me it will always be their quilt. That said I do not think there is anything wrong with giving it to some one else. I would just not tell both parties involved.

So sorry for the mom and dad of this precious little one.

So sorry about the wee one. Prayers for the whole family. This quilt is precious and I know that some child would love it.

OK you all have put my Dyslexic brain and eyes to the test. Just what is wrong with that poor Iguana? BrendaK

Please offer it to the grieving family.

So sorry about this tragic loss. My prayers go out to the parents and all other family members.

I am so so truly sorry for the loss of your family's little angel. It's a beautiful quilt that you made!
Peace and strength to you and your family!

So sorry for the loss of the baby. Hugs to you and your family. Your quilt is really cute!

So sorry for your loss! Took me a bit to find your boo boo!

That is such a cute quilt. Sorry for your loss.

It looks like it was planned that way with a sense of humor. Take time and support the family as they grieve the loss of this wee one. I am so sorry for this loss.

So sorry for the loss of the baby. Your quilt is very cute,

Sorry for you loss. Sweet quilt.

So sorry for your loss. Losing a child is about the worst thing that can happen to anyone, I know. It's a great quilt and I love how you set the blocks in a wonky design. If you had not mentioned it, I would not have noticed your "mistake". The Amish say that they always put a mistake into every quilt because only God is perfect. God bless.

Sorry for the family's loss - and I didn't notice the boo-boo until I read your post.

Very cute! What a great way to use I-spy squares.

I'm sorry for you loss. I would offer it to the mom any way. I knew a woman who lost her baby at 36 weeks and a friend of her was crocheting an afgan for the baby and still gave it to her. She kept a memory box and it was in there. Every time she thought of her daughter she would pull it out and hold it.

This was also my thought, the mother may cherish it, but you would need to talk to her, or someone close to her, if she would want it or if it would bring her more pain.

My daughter gave birth to a still born baby boy, Daniel. He was early and I hadn't finished his quilt. She called me the night she came home and told me she had given birth to a baby boy and came home with only a box. The hospital fixed boxes with pictures of the baby and a few other things. She asked if I would finish his quilt. My grand daughter told me a couple of months later that her Mommy sleeps with Daniel's quilt. I believe it gave her some comfort. She had a very difficult time. Daniel would have been 7 this September. We always do something on his birthday to remember him.

It's a wonderful quilt (especially with the wonky iguana) and I would offer it to the parents who may want a tangible reminder of little Wyatt.

It sure is. The family didn't know I was making the quilt and I don't personally know the couple at all, have never met them. I think I will just hang on to it until the next relative or friend has a baby.

Sending prayers to you and your family!

so sorry for your family's loss. you have made a delightful quilt!
