    It certainly is not hideous!!!!! Every quilt is unique and I think you should give it. This quilt is not one that will have to be put up when he is 2 or 3 cause its too babyish. He can love this one for years.

    It is a great quilt. And I agree with others that it will be appreciated for many years by the little boy.

    It is coming from the heart and I do not think it is hideous. I like it and I think most new mommies now a days don't seem to want the typical baby quilt. GIVE IT! It will be loved!

    I don't think it's ugly it does have the bohemiem feel to it but if you don't thing the shower guests will receive it well I know any charity will accept it with open arms.

    I think it is really cute and I know a lot of love went in it, so give 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?
