I think it would be great to have people jump up and down for joy when they get one of my quilts but I don't expect that. Is a thank you too much to ask for? I made a baby quilt for a neighbor's grandbaby and got a very lukewarm response from her daughter. They have posted literally hundreds of pics of this baby online and not once has the quilt been in the picture - just lots of store bought blankets. And never a thank-you note of any kind - and it has been 4 months since the quilt was given. The next one was made for a co-worker of my DH. Another co-worker who is her best friend assured my DH that this person would love a baby quilt and saw the colors that were chosen. She said they were aperfect match for this persons nursery. The quilt was given a month ago and have not heard anything from the recipient. The next quilt on my list is a graduation gift for my niece. Her dad and grandmother both think she will love it. I am doing an easy pattern in colors from her bedroom. Something she can take to college with her in the fall. I'm hoping for a better response with this one. If not - in the future all my quilts will stay inside my house (with the exception of charity quilts) from now on!
