    Default 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.

    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

    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.
