    Since you've already sent that beautiful quilt I'm sure it will be greatly appreciated.

    Oh, by the way, my second son was "supposed to be a girl" all the way to the delivery room. Lots of pink got given away!

    I'm also sure this is not the last quilt you will make for this sweet baby! The idea of doing a playtime quilt when he's a bit older sounds good to me.

    I love your rag quilt, and honestly I think it would work for both boy or girl. If Mom and Dad leave the room the same colors, and I imagine they will it will fit it just perfectly. They will have a lot of other things to take care of besides the color of the walls. Keeping you all in my thoughts and prayers.

    WOW! i am stunned.....The color of the quilt is a moot point. Wrap that baby in the love of the quilt. Why is the color "important"??


    One, I hope that you had permission to post the photo of your precious great grandbaby. (Very intimate photo as in his current situation). I assume his health is the utmost priority vs the "color" of a quilt. He is precious and I pray for his continued progress.

    The quilts is beautiful, soothing and comforting, made with love.

    While I think your quilt is absolutely precious, and is perfectly fine for a boy, i would probably want to make another one especially for HIM . Having said that, I'll bet if you wrap that little sweetie up in the quilt already made, he will feel the love you stitched into it, and be perfectly content to claim it. Prayers going up for Michael Alexander.

    Congratulations on the new little and may both mom and baby have speedy recoveries! I would recommend a different style from rag since it can produce fluff from the fray edges. Most premies have some respiratory compromise so anything to aide in decreasing issues is a plus IMHO. Again congrats!

    Congratulations on your newest addition to your family! Our unit has only had an issue like that once in the 5 years that I've been there..."Oh he's peeing....he? Weren't we supposed to have a girl???" Ha ha ha! Science is not full proof! I often joke with laboring women and their families about that. "What are we going to name this baby if it's not a ____?" At least I get them thinking.

    On a different note, I'd give this one to Katie and make her newborn a new one. She'll have a smile on her face every time she sees or uses it.

    Michael and Katie's health and well being are of the utmost concern. My only question was, Does this quilt look too girlie? And, of course I had permission to post the picture. Daddy Alex posted it on facebook for the world to see and pray for this little guy. He is precious to all of our family and is doing quite well under the circumstances. Thanks for the kind comments.
