Great job.

I never thought about it being useful past the baby stage. That would make it preferable to a traditional "baby" quilt. Now I can tell the mother that I planned it that way! LOL

Oh my, the middle is a "Friendship Star"? That's perfect for telling the mother it was an intentional design because of my friendship with her!!! LOL! Great spin!

Thanks everyone for changing my perspective. I can proudly give this away knowing that it is a unique, one-of-a-kind gift that should be useful past the infant stage.

Well, they are both beautiful, and you did a good job on them. Crib quilt, lap quilt, either way, they are great quilts.
Moms now don't seem to care about the baby pastels, anyhow. Thanks for sharing them.
