I'm sure your grandson loves that quilt! I have been quilting several years now and I had made a small quilt for my mom. It wasn't anything spectacular as I hadn't been quilting all that long at the time. But I gave it to her and she said she really liked it. I told her about some other quilt projects I was hoping to work on, etc. and she made a comment something about,"well how many quilts does anyone really need?" She went on about the expense of the material and finding places to store them, etc. While I know that she didn't mean anything by her comments, it sort of made me feel bad that I would spend my time and money on something that seemed rather insignificant to some people. That comment has always stayed with me. I guess I just assumed that EVERYONE loves quilts! . Thanks for letting me vent...
