My first quilt was a wedding quilt for my niece. Her response was a tepid thank you and she didn't even take it out of the box. There's a lot of negative history there and I was trying to rebuild the relationship. It didn't work. A waste of time and effort and a disappointment.
On the other hand, my MIL was overwhelmed with hers for Christmas and a coworker with hers when she retired. Below is my sons' reaction to theirs. I am thankful my quilting efforts are appreciated by those who matter to me.
