lose a grandson and you know the quilts really did not matter at least he was here

Do you need advice? When you make quilts, have a purpose in mind, except adding another quilt to your quilt stash. Give them away, sell them, offer them as raffle prizes. There are many things you can do. Rather than displaying all your quilts, take clean paper grocery bags, insert as quilt, tape or tie shut and put away, if you must keep them.

OMG,OMG, that's all I can say! My son is at my house right now watching the dog....better not be any poker parties and he knows better than to touch my quilts! So sorry you are going thru that...it hurts!

I have 3 grown sons, and 3 teenage grandsons. I know better than to have anything around that can't be washed and loved. I find it very flattering when they ask if they can use one of my quilts to sleep with when they come to visit. I even find them laying the dog's quilt out to lay on. If it isn't meant to be used it is under wraps, in my house.

I figure if they're on the wall they're art. If the're lyIng around on things, they're for cover.

So far all my quilts are made exactly for that purpose: to be used. It's too bad your GS didn't realize that yours were for display only. Hopefully they will look as good as new after being washed.

I'm hoping you had a little chat with him while he was washing the quilts.
