I made 2 quilts for college DDs for Christmas one year. hid them when they came home for weekends. Made one for DH's birthday-collected the fabric for at least a year(all wldlife/hunting themed)-never caught on. right now I'm finishing the last of 5 for christmas gifts for my kids. Only one is still at home so that hasn't been a problem. Did have one close call with these, visiting DD wanted to borrow my sewing machine to finish a gift, had to scurry and hide everything.
