Keep doing what you want. My mother's reaction to a stained glass piece I made (cost almost as much as a queen quilt) disappointed me so much that I quit doing SG for a long time. DON'T let that happen to you. I've learned to not give my mother anything!!!!! Sounds cold, huh....LOL Well, it was HER decision --- said about 2 weeks later that she has so much stuff, she felt we shouldn't give gifts to adults any more. It was like a double-slap in the face.......
