If that quilter had been my grandma she would have threatened his life if he even thought to make her ruin something she made. Which she has done before. This was pre 9-11 however. She was taking an apple pie to Canada and the guy said that he would have to cut into it to make she there wasn't anything "baked" into it. She said that she would cut off any appendages that came near her pie. And she would have done it too. She has keyed cars before when they took her place she was waiting for.
But I do agree that I would be making lots of calls to various places and making a nucence of my self over this.
