I can sympathize with you!! One year I made embroidered Christmas cards for family members and special friends. One DIL framed hers...it was a nativity scene. My mother framed hers and all the rest must have thrown them away. I never heard a word about them. This year I made some beautiful ones and donated them to our WMU auction at church for Lottie Moon. I'll be careful who I sew for from now on!
