I had the opposite problem. I have a baby quilt made, but everyone says it's kind of girly. I tried to make it neutral and used teal, green, and yellow for the blocks. Got an invitation to a baby shower for my cousin's son and wouldn't you know it, they are having a boy. Wow, good excuse to buy blue fabric. Had an awful time finding a pattern, and got the fabrics on Friday. I needed a very simple pattern since the shower is March 16. Their "theme" is pirates, and very few patterns fit the bill for that pattern. I have the center panel finished, and just have to add 2 or 3 borders. I think I will make the deadline, but don't like having to rush. Wish me luck.

If the mom isn't excited about a really pink quilt I did one with some adorable fabric I found at Joanne's. It has a green background with butterflies and lady bugs and the words "girl bugs". Very feminine without screaming pink!

here's a pic of what I like to do for a girl. it goes together really fast. You can leave the picture out and the 'B' doesn't have to be there either.

And another: This one is really fast, just four ohio star blocks. Float them so you don't have to worry about the points and add a couple of borders. Done and cute!

Yeah! it worked. This is a drunkards path pattern. Quick and easy. Add a pretty lace on the edge and You have a girly quilt! I used polkadots. Quilted it with a rose bud motif.
