with the expense time and love it takes to make a quilt I am very careful who I give them to only to people that I really know and that I know would really appreciate them I was in a beauty shop and listened to a conversation and knew I made the right decision when I overheard a lady say how shocked she was at an auction when someone paid 75.00 dollars for an old quilt I have also seen them very misused also mine are just stacked on the spare bed and when I know someone really wants one then I will give it
