(Don't know how thin-skinned your DH is, but mine would be hurt if I gave something away that he thought I would really like)

I agree! And it does seem to match your carpet in your house.

Are you a member of a Sunday School Class? It would be a perfect wall hanging in a church or class room IF you decide not to keep it in your house. I certainly wouldn't give away a gift as sweet at this. Sounds like he loves you bunches!!! How thoughtful he is.

Oh I agree, you should finish it and put Minkee on the back and rest under it when your not feeling so good. What a sweet husband you have. He might be hurt if you give it away since he bought it for you and wants you to feel better. No keep it1 The back could be raspberry Minkee! :lol:

And it does match one thing in your home perfectly - the love between you and your husband.
Suggest that you just take it to Michaels', get it framed, cutting off the outer gold border, leaving the inner, darker border, and hang it prominently in your home.

A bit late responding to this, so please accept my apology, but I agree with the others who posted saying to Keep IT!
I don't see why you feel it doesn't "go" with your colors, I think it matches your carpet perfectly! :)
Plus, that image fits any and every decor...you have a very wonderful husband and I am glad you are feeling better ... don't know what had you down and in pain, but whatever i was, I do hope it's now a memory.

I'd add a border and quilt it. Then I'd put it over the back of the sofa or chair and use it as a lap quilt. Maybe even carry it to Bible study with me. Churches are so cold in the winter. It's beautiful.
