Actually, it's just social conditioning. The whole pink=girl/blue=boy thing only started around the beginning of 20th century. Before that it was actually reversed, with pink considered the more masculine colour, and blue more feminine.

The icons (quacky, octi, planes, cars etc) you have, I assume they are part of the quilt, if so, should they not of been stitched on. Right now, they look thrown on. Just a simple cross stitch.
And as a final little touch to add that all important realism to this, can we have a loose thread or two.

I think the intention was that they were toys that were thrown on the bed. However, they do look like they are just cut-out pieces of felt. I don't know if trying to make them look more like 3-D toys would be a good idea or not.

If they are felt/cloth, then my original idea stands, if they are supposed to be proper toys, having them look like toys would be good. For the sake of clarity and keeping the overall look the same, having them as felt seems to be better.

what do you mean neutral? currently they're a very light pink which as you can see above shows all the colours perfectly.
do you want the army boxes to be white? i can do that but wouldn't it be too bland?

why is it out of place? each piece of quilt is an actual texture of material and just like the others have zig-zag patterns, dot patterns or line patterns, this one has a square pattern.
