I know I sure would have.
If I had been the nurse, I would have said "how can you give this away, it's hand made!" I would have read the tag to the patient and made sure she knew who made it for her and told her it was too valuable for me to take, that she needed to take it home. After all, it was made for HER by a FRIEND. Then I would have offered to drop it off for her if she couldn't manage it that day. Guess I appreciate handmade items as I know the work that goes into it and to me it would have been like STEALING to accept it, especially since the chick didn't have a clue. Do I live in a small town area? Yes, but I'd like to think that even if I didn't, I'd do the same.
Exactly what I would have done......and I'm a nurse. Never, never, never would I have accepted a gift like that. I would have made sure she left my floor with that quilt in her hands! But then she probably would have given it to the outpatient staff on her way out through. LOL
