One for my friend, one for my sister-in-law and one for my neighbour? Well, I had given two out (to my friend and SIL), and still had the last one to give to my neighbour. I hadn't actually met her baby yet, but I wrapped it up and sent hubby over there to give it to her.
The whole reason I thought she'd had a girl was because Mr handsome told me that he'd seen her with a pink-coloured blanket. Anyway, as your probably guessing by now, when he gave it to her he found out that she'd actually had a boy!!
She said she loved it sooo much though that she was happy to keep it. She even came over to thank me, and tell me how beautiful it was.
I however was frantically whipping up a quilt for a boy so I could swap it with her.
Honestly, I finished this quilt in RECORD time!! My friend had actually given me the top sewn together to make myself a baby quilt for Little Miss S....but to be honest, I knew I wasn't going to use it for her as to me its more "boy", and I already have a lovely quilt planned for her!
I had to unstitch and resew some of it to make it more of the shape I wanted, then pin and quilt it to the back. I flipped over the back, which is a lovely soft minky, and used it for the binding as well.
I think it turned out really cute!
If she loved the first quilt, she a.d.o.r.e.d this one!!

P.S. sorry about the photos! They were super quick snaps taken on my living room floor before I rushed out the door!
