I have to say that I'm thrilled when someone loves the quilt I made for them, and am disappointed if they're not. But, seriously, unless someone specifically asks for it, I try not to act like it's a personal attack if they don't like or want it. I remember too many knitted things from old great aunts that I received as a kid that I'm SURE took lots of time and effort, but I sure didn't want.That being said, you'd hope that someone would have the good manners to at least appear appreciative. (I remember writing the thank you notes for those knitted things - wonder if they saw through me??)
