give my quilts to people I LIKE. It is my way of saying, "Here, I like you so you have the great honour of one of quilts being in your life. Cherish it or chuck it, it is yours and I am happy to have made it for you."
Now having said that DH keeps asking me to make a quilt for his daughter. She is thirty, has a great job and lives in another province and has never in the 6 years I have known him, sent him a birthday card, Father's Day card, Christmas card and of course never a gift either... so let me tell you I don't LIKE the selfish little %&!@* (rhymes with witch). She's on my list but I am hoping he forgets he has ever mentioned it!
Do it for him... I, too, have stepdaughters - one of which has lied to others about me, the other (when younger) wouldn't even come to the car one Christmas (let alone our house) to give her father a gift because I was in the car. I continued doing things for them as long as my husband asked me to - they now share in our supper EVERY Monday night - - -it has turned out so well... lots of heart ache in the mean time, but now it's been worth it - forgive her for his sake... oh - and I just made each of them a quilt - at my own 'request'!!! :)
