    Default Reversible baby quilt
    My nephew and his girlfriend are having a baby in Sept. I asked my sister what was their favorite color, and she said it appears to be beige (how dull!) and they don't want anything to be primarily blue. So I made one side beige and the other side a scrappy multi.

    Very nice, soothing on one side, stimulating on the other.

    Great idea! It does seem that the days of pink and blue for babies is a thing of the past, doesn't it? I like how you did that quilt.

    Perfect combo in a generous and lovely gift. I suspect baby will prefer the more vibrant side LOL

    I love how you've worked around their desired "color" with the need for stimulation for a baby. The black and white with pops of color is infinitely more interesting, IMHO, but you've also given them what they want. Perfect!

    Your diagonal quilting shows up well on the multi-colored side. Thanks for sharing and inspiring!

    Very cute quilt! Want to bet the baby uses the stimulating colour side the most?
