sort of messed it up

Why can't I just learn to leave things the way they were. I had quilt all finished and ready to send for baby shower for my great grand baby and things got really complicated. Mother had to have a c-section and baby is now in NICU; weighed 2.5 lbs and is doing fairly well and is getting great care. But, then I decided I wanted to add his b/d and weight to label which is of course on the back side, so I did. Well, on the front side the blue top thread is showing on the top of the quilt which is grey and white. It's not a lot, but I notice it. But not taking it out because I like the label as is. So, can you think of something I could do to cover it up on the front; elephant themed? the last picture did not turn out so disregard. it was the front of the quilt trying to show where the blue thread shows through. the elephant on the right side of the quilt has nothing to do with it.

Cute quilt. Maybe appliqué some footprints over the blue (very carefully).

so cute! Have you laundered it yet? There may the case of the disappearing blue thread when finished!
If you don't point it out NO ONE will notice or care. (((hugs to the tiny recipient))) |

Pretty quilt, thoughts and prayers for your great grandchild.

Thanks for responses; I have decided to just leave it and already gift wrapped and sent off in the mail. I was afraid I would just make it worse. It would have been fine if I hadn't added his date of birth and weight on the label, but glad I put it on there. Label was already stitched and quilted down so couldn't take it off. I'm tired of worrying over it, too many other things to worry about.

Hoping baby does well, then he will be able to drag it around and wear it out and then you can make a new one for him.
|
Good for you! It's adorable and no one but you will see the blue.
|
So cute! The elephant is just adorable!
