    Great! Be sure to put a label on it. I like the idea yngldy had of sneaking it over to the house maybe you could be there when he opens the box. A solid pink back might be a bit much for a quilt for an adult at least in my opinion-maybe you could make it reversible like a quilt as you go.

    I have a quilting buddy that is always doing stuff for me, but never allows me to do anything for her! She's careful to never let slip anything that SHE wants, so it's frustrating trying to return the favors too! But she happened to mention on one of the groups how much she admired all neutral quilts, but had no idea how to go about making one, so I did one for her without her having a clue it was coming! It shocked her, and once it was done, and labeled, she couldn't say no! ROFL! It was soooo much fun getting the drop on her for a change! *snicker*

    Oh, what fun! I always love finding a person that I think really will appreciate something I've made and he sounds like a winner! Have a good time making it for him.

    My kind of gal! I love to give surprise gifts. It is so much more fun when they don't know it is coming.
