    Doesn't look "girly" at all. You did a great job. Love the colors.

    I see "Australian boy" written all over this. You made it for him, so he would love it no matter what.

    I don't see girlie at all! To my eye it is 100% boy... However, I always liked snakes and such so it would work for girls that aren't into girlie girl things! Very nice quilt BTW!

    That's a beautiful quilt. Than you so much - I'd never thought of using mini bow-tie blocks as cornerstones. Really looks good.
