when I give away kids quilts, I always send a card with it. I tell the recipient to " use it, make tents with it, make a fort, use it for picnics, play on the floor on it, wrap yourself in it, lay on the couch watching t.v. , just love it and use it to pieces and when it is beyond repair, we'll make another one or two. Whatever you use it for, use it to make memories.
