I made a rather nice quilt for my step-granddaughter, with applique and other features which are time consuming. I later found that the family was using it for a dog blanket. I get along very well with this GD and her family, so I know it wasn't done for out of meanness for me, but it still hurt. On the other hand, I have three young ladies who "adopted" me when they were little girls. I made each one a simple quilt - blocks of bandana print and denim. They loved these quilts so much they carried them everywhere. When they grew older and they became cheerleaders, they took their blankets in the bus for out of town games. Made me feel warm and fuzzy all over..... You can't let one person ruin your joy of quilting and sharing your craft. It is very discouraging to see your pride and joy abused, but I will never quit giving my quilts to those I love.
