Sounds like you are giving gifts for the wrong reason.
As a matter of fact I do expect the recipient to jump up and down, and if they don't I snatch up the quilt and bring it back home with me. LMAO*
. . . anyone if they aren't going appreciate it...be it a quilt or a pack of pencils from the dollar tree! LOL*
Actually, I probably wouldn't jump up and down, but I might have tears in my eyes if someone gave me something so precious!
And if someone doesn't want a gift, or can't appreciate what I give them, I figure I might as well save my time and money and just talk to them and save the gifts for someone else--someone who does like them or appreciate them, whether a pack of pencils or a quilt.
