Default What do you think of this pattern for baby boy quilt?

I've just pieced a top and now I'm second guessing myself. What do you
think of the blue and yellow quilt top called "flying" in my album?
http://community.webshots.com/user/hellofromsmd

I'd planned to make two like this, mirror images or each other for
coworkers who share an office and who are due 10 days apart (both with
boys). The pattern is called "star burst" and it is from a recent
issue of Quiltmaker. Our university colors are yellow and blue and
both women received training here... I'll quilt them with a verigated
aurifil thread called provence. It's all blues and yellows... plan
to bind with navy blue satin blanket binding.

The name comes from the fact that all of the prints are of things that
either fly or are in the sky. Like stars, snowflakes, bumble bees,
birds etc... thought I'd call it "Off to a Flying Start."

Think they will like them? It sounds coy to ask that but I'm really
unsure.

Me, myself, I love it. I'm not pregnant, with a boy or otherwise, (BTDT)
but if this needs a home, my snail addy is available ;-)

I love the quilt, and the choice of prints for the theme... its all just
kind of fun and joyful! I cant picture anyone not liking such a happy quilt
for their baby.

I think the idea is grand, and quilt #1 turned out great. They will adore
them!

I really, really like it. I think they will love it.
I specially like the way the pale blue changes to yellow to highlight
the unusual star shape. It is great. The mirror image idea is also
very good.
(I understand 'coy', but I'm growing out of it - it was just a phase -
50 years long, unfortunately g)
