    I think the colors are perfect! Purple and green happen to be my husband's favorite colors and he's definitely male, LOL.

    It's a very cute quilt, too. Congrats on the new family member!

    I think the quilt is perfect, especially since it matches the room. I think I see frogs in the embroidery and that is definitely boy. If you are concerned, make another with cars or trucks on it--one can never have too many quilts, especially quilts made by their great grandmother. He is so cute, keep us posted on his progress, and your granddaughters too.

    Congrats on baby boy!
    I made my great nephew a green and purple quilt. They love it.

    I like QuiltnNan's idea. It will match his room now and then later when his personality develops, you can make one with his likes and dislikes, a drag-along quilt. Besides, any baby can always use more than one quilt.

    Since it has already been mailed, I'd not worry about it at all. It is adorable for a little boy, and since it will match his room, mom can use it more as a crib quilt to match the decor. Since you are concerned about it, I would go ahead and make him another one in addition to this one, one that she can lay on the floor for him to play on, one that would eventually (maybe) be his drag-along quilt. The quilt is beautiful, and your great-grandson is adorable!

    Very sweet quilt. I would think it could be for a boy or a girl. Precious baby. I pray Mom and Baby will be healthy and home from the hospital as soon as possible. Prayers for Dad, also.

    Congratulations on the birth of that beautiful baby boy!!
    I think the quilt is fine for a boy or girl. I'm sure he will love it.
    Just a note--my daughter is a type one diabetic and she had a baby girl at 30 weeks and a baby boy at 28 weeks (She went into labor-not induced). They are now teenagers and in perfect health. My grandson is 14 and taller than his dad. He is also very, very bright and has won scholarships to sports camps and academic awards.
    I'm sure Michael will be happy and healthy. God bless him and his momma.

    Congratulations on the birth of your 10th great-grandchild! I have two grandkids that run me ragged....and they are 7 and 3 so it's too early for great grandkids for me, but what a blessed event for you and your family! Praying for Katie's recovery and peace while she waits. Also for baby Michael that he would gain weight and strength and be home in God's timing.

    As for the quilt? I agree with the ladies who said to follow your heart. .
