Ohhhh! Give it...definitely. It may not be the perfect newborn quilt, but it is a perfect little boy quilt, one that mom won't mind having on the sofa with all those modern colors. I like it!

I like it... and I think we are our sorst critics. Give it anyway! The Mom will love it and he will be able to use it for many yrs.

hold on to it and give it when he is older. a toddler maybe or kindergarten age. He would probably enjoy it.

I think it's lovely! I am also a fan of darker colors for babies because well, babies make a lot of stains!

Yes it is. (just kidding). Could you give it to me? LOL.

I love it! If you want to give it to me I will PM my address *wink*. seriously. I think it is beautiful, and classy.

I like it too, with the dark colors they can drag it any where they want.

I would give it to them. It's very different and not at all like the pinks and blues you usually get. Baby will enjoy it!

Hubby has been encouraging me to give it anyway, as it's a nice usable cozy quilt, but is it too darned ugly to give away?

:thumbup: :thumbup: That is quite unique - not a thing wrong with it. It's unusual so would be quite a treasure.
