WWYD: Baby Related

When I first told people I was pregnant, a good friend of mine told be she was going to knit a blanket for B.  During the course of my pregnancy she met somebody and got engaged.....they got married in July and she moved cross-country from VA to CA.  I 100% understand that she has been insanely busy with, well, life since we originally spoke about the blanket.  Here's the thing, I never received it.  She came to my shower and got me awesome stuff from my registry.  But I was REALLY looking forward to B having a handmade blanket that was just for him.  

So, here is my WWYD.  Would you mention it to your friend or just ignore it? 

Re: WWYD: Baby Related

  • I'd ignore it.

    My MOH wrote in my wedding card that my gift wasn't ready yet and I'd get it once it was. I thought she might be making something and was really excited to see what it was. I never got anything, though and although I thought about mentioning it, I decided just to let it go.

  • Ignore it. She probably just got busy with life and ended up not making it.

    Agree!

  • Ignore it.  She probably feels bad about not making it but hasn't wanted to bring it up.  

    It's easy to learn to crochet-- you could make him one from his mommy, and nothing is more special than that!  <3

  • She may still intend to make it and just hasn't had the time too.  My BFF is due in January and I promised her a hand-knitted blanket for my god-daughter.  While I fully intend to make it, I haven't even had a chance to buy the yarn yet.  If I don't get my butt in gear, she won't have the blanket by her shower but eventually, she will have the blanket.  It's possible your friend decided to push it back to his birthday too.
