I love this quilt - great use of yellow scraps! I love the name too. When I quilted my NEVER AGAIN quilt (yes that is what I officially named it - it was a California king size geisha girl quilt made out of home decor fabrics that my sister wanted quilted in argyle diamonds that I too referred to as drunk diamonds-after the first row now of the rest were truly diamonds anymore. lol) so I got a chuckle out of the title of this quilt. It’s perfect by the way! It will be loved! It’s gorgeous.

Pineapples are a symbol of warmth and friendship. I love this quilt, and I'm not just saying that. It's calm, soothing, peaceful, and relaxing to look at, and I love that it is so simple in color. I happen to like imperfect things, because it reminds me to remember that we are all flawed. Pineapples are imperfect, nature is imperfect, life is imperfect.
And, I don't think you should name it Drunk Pineapple. I think you should call it Sweet Surprise or something positive.
When you give it to her and when she uses it, it should be a reminder of you, not of the unfortunate comment your husband made. Feel good about the giving.
And further to his comment, that's another reason why I never remarried, lol.
