I agree. I imagine that the first time she wraps herself up in it she will realize just how special your gift to her really was. Give her time. :wink: If she still doesn't seem to appreciate your gift, then let the ill feelings go. You know how much love you put into it -- even if she doesn't. Sometimes it is a crap shoot when gifting someone with a quilt. Back in May of this year I made a Curious George quilt for my fiance's youngest grandson -- even though he tried to discourage me from making a quilt for either of his grandsons. I have been to his son's home several times and he (my fiance) has been there even more than I have, and we have yet to see that quilt anywhere!! Nothing has ever even been mentioned about it!! My fiance's daughter-in-law has never thanked me for it either. Whenever we've asked his grandsons about the quilt, we just get a blank look. It makes me wonder if I should spend all the time it would take to make each of them an "I Spy" quilt since I don't know if they would even appreciate it. Then I tell myself to go ahead and do it anyway because I know I am doing it because I love them.
BTW: I absolutely LOVE your quilt!!
