I made a beautiful basket quilt for my DH's bro and new wife. SIL never shows the patchwork side, only the back, as the baskets don't go with her Mardi Gras decor. :roll:
SIL considers quilts to be blankets with no value to them.
I asked if I could make my niece and nephew twin size quilts for their beds and SIL said they had enough blankets.
Now I only make charity quilts for kids and our Soldiers. I know they are appreciated by the recipients.
