Don't let one incident sour giving for you. We've probably all had either lack-luster responses or mistreatment but then, you also get the ones like my grandson who loves his quilt.
I gave my sister a quilt probably 15 years ago and I saw it at her house recently on the couch. It looked old and worn and that shocked me for just a moment then I thought... it's been used! It is a simple Amish square-in-square and hand quilted. Maybe it's time to make her another one.
Just know that if that happens, you don't need to make that person a quilt again. Maybe you could ask for the quilt to clean it up and repair.
