It's a beautiful quilt! I think we should all take a lesson from her response to the quilt. I have learned that our passion is not everyone's passion. We need to be really sensitive about what we do for others.

I have 6 grandson's and none of my daughters or daughter-in-law would use those colors for their boys. Reason: Today's culture is so into sissifying our boys that my girls are really sensitive about it. None will touch pink with a ten-foot pole. That's okay. We have rugged grandsons and adore them. They would all be mortified if they knew that they had a "pink" quilt.....and I mean any pink at all. That's the color that just jumps out at them.

It's tough quilting for someone else...especially a present. The best thing to do is to ask what colors they are planning to do the baby's room in and go from there.

I would definitely keep this beautiful quilt and when a new little girl comes along...she will be the winner!

It's really pretty. Maybe she'll change her mind if she realizes what came out of her mouth was rude and unthoughtful. Or, maybe you'll find a more appreciative recipiant .... you did a nice job.

Hard to believe she'd turn down such a beautiful quilt, especially after all your time and $ investment!!! Some people's kids....
Like others have said, there are LOTS of people out there who would truly be appreciative and thankful to have such a wonderful quilt, so bless someone who would like to have it!

I agree, keep it till needed. It is a beautiful quilt.

I think it is a very lovely quilt and would either keep it until someone announces they are having a girl or donate it to a charity/organization. Unfortunately, we will never be rid of rude people in this world.

It seems sometimes that common courtesy has gone out the window..I would take back the quilt and never make her another one. Does she think she is at the designer store??? In any event, babies don't care what color the quilt is, they only care that they are warm and cuddled. Boy colors, girl colors that is just fashion/fad/fancy....at the turn of the last century Blue was considered too wishy washy for boys and was seen as more for girls...As for babies they see contrast more than colors....Best colors that babies see.....black and white. So keep the quilt until you find someone who will love and use it to keep a baby warm.

This is beautiful I don't think it is too girly looking.

She is being ridiculous. I certainly wouldn't make a quilt for her again. AARGH! :evil:

It's a beautiful quilt for ANY baby! Too bad she didn't like it. I'll bet her baby would have loved it! Maybe when he's older and ready for a "big boy bed" you can make one to present to HIM, so he knows that you think of him.
