Wow! You are AMAZING!! You just made that up as you went along?!?!? Impressive. I really like this bag, it is different. Why do you think you DD wouldn't use it?
PS just hopped over to your blog you have some really neat stuff there too.

If you think your DD is not the right home just let it sit out on the counter when you have friends round and let someone else fall in love with it. I have lots of quilts that i have made that haven't had homes to go to. Sometimes it takes years for them to find the right place to be.

I would show it to your daughter first and let her have first dibs...

I agree. Sometimes our kids can really surprise us... LOL! I really like this. But I also understand what you're saying. I have a 75% finished (needs borders) queen-sized quilt top that I made for my DH & have decided is too hideous to give to him. Actually, he'd probably like it but I hate it so much I don't even want to finish it. Bummer!

Give it to her as part of your gift -- your taste is almost 100% guaranteed to be different from your daughters. I think its gorgeous, but its not my style. When your daughter opens it, tell her that if it isn't her taste to give it to someone else who might like it, so she doesn't feel obligated to keep it. But I'd bet money she'll love it as its elegant, and totally different from anyone else's bag...you did an absolutely fantastic job on it!
