Beautiful quilt. You need to learn to stand up for yourself, I wonder how many quilts that man had made? You have done a wonderful job and beautiful time consuming work. It is work you should be proud of. Be thankful that we have the opportunity now to be able to pick out our own material for our quilts and are able to have bright beautiful colors. Be thankful that we have made the progress out of the dark ages and have wonderful machines that are capable of so many stitches and so many designs. And that you are smart enough to have mastered those machines and turn out such exquisite work. Be proud of yourself and your talent and never let anyone drive you from a room! Shame on that old man ... let's just hope he wasn't feeling well and was not that mean and bitter all the time.
