Grammypatty - thank you for your words (posted above). I grew up with a similar Mom. When I was younger, I painted and she told me that real artists don't put their own work up around their houses, it showed that they were proud. Guess how long it took me to hang a quilted wallhanging in this house...much too long.
I quilt mainly for me and I want to have some of this stuff around me. It makes me happy.
By the way, love the Texas quilt. Looks impecably (hope I spelled that right) made.

Enjoy your creative treasures as that's what they are. Aren't we lucky that times have changed.

This is an awesome quilt!!! I love it!
You know we are our own worst critic, right? We see what we believe is wrong with our own creations, but what the recipient sees is all the love that you have put into it. I would take it in a heartbeat!!!!! : )
