Disappointed
#1
So, this isn't really a big drama, but I just finished my second quilt ever and it was a baby quilt I made for an old friend and his fiance for their new baby.
I spent a lot of time and money on it, and although it was a good practice quilt, it was always meant to be a gift to them and a lot of thought went into it. Once their daughter was born I put her name and birthdate on the label and sent it off Tuesday.
I sent a message to him via Facebook letting him know a package was coming and he replied to me saying thanks, even though he didn't know what it was.
The package should have arrived Wednesday and I haven't heard anything at all and am just a little disappointed that he either didn't like it at all, or didn't send a quick message to say it's arrived or say thanks again once he saw it.
Am I expecting too much?

True, maybe. It's just that he's normally very quick to send me either text messages or messages on Facebook, but I'm probably just being paranoid. I have been so excited about the quilt and the thought of them loving it that it never occurred to me that they may not be as excited.

My first thought was that their brains may just be so fried withthe new little one that the thought just trully escaped him to let you know that the package arrived ok. I'm sure they loved the quilt and you are worrying too much about if they will like it or not. Call them!
