Yep, happened to me too. Made a Queen size quilt for my SIL in AZ. Used the colors that she asked for. She never put in on the bed, stored it for about a year and after they had their whole house re-painted, she said that she would return it as they weren't her colors. I was really hurt. I should have kept it myself after that, but when I got it back, the Fine Arts Dept. at school was having a fund raiser auction, so I donated it to go with a Bed and Breakfast package. It was so funny that the one that bought the package was the owner of a LQS. She said, "I thought I had seen that before." (she was the Pres. of our quilt guild when I showed it in the Quilt Show) I just love making them for the enjoyment of it and giving them away. Someday I will make one and give it to ME! :)
