One of my daughters doesn't like quilted items either. I am fortunate enough to be able to watch her two boys 3 days a week and the oldest one loves my quilts. He is only 3, but he has to have a different one to take his nap under everyday. He likes to have one for each holiday. Now he is able to help sew a simple 10 minute table runner and we have so much fun looking at the quilts together. I am sure that there is someone around you that will enjoy the quilts. I use good fabric, too because I could easily afford it before I retired. It's a little different now and I do buy some less expensive goods. Do what makes YOU happy.
