I guess it happens to all of us at one time or another. We want to share our love by making a quilt & i've come to the conclusion that maybe we 'love' more than they do. Maybe we care for that person more than they care for us. If they really cared, they would know & appreciate what we, you or any of us put in the making of the quilt. I use to make quilts & give them as Christmas presents but several of them fell into the hands that didn't care & I just don't do it anymore. I call myself a quilter & a quilt collector! I quilt & I keep what I make now! No one appreciates them near as much as we do & IF they do I figure let them fight over them when I die! I probably have about 20 quilts around the house that I've made & I probably have 20 more I want to make. Most of my friends that know me know that it is my love & passion. But those that don't take the time always ask the same question "how many quilts do you need" I say "All of them"
