Thank you all for the kind words..you are all very nice. My post was not to boast, but to share the sense of appreciation that I received from the shelter. I was brought to tears. I have donated many quilts through my local guild, but you never see the faces of appreciation from those who receive them, unless you deliver them personally. I have only delivered quilts once before and was met with such non-appreciation I was very hurt. I delivered 12 quilts and the gal didn't even look at what I was donating nor ask my name before she took them to the back room. Sometimes I never knew where my donation quilts went after giving them to the guild either. Giving to this shelter was such a positive experience, I can't wait to get started on next year's!
