Please forgive her ignorance. Most people have no idea how much work, sweat, time and love goes into one of our creations. These projects are almost like children (forgive my drama). We spend so much time, work, sweat and love wanting them to be independent and sometimes get offended when they are. She probably has no idea she hurt your feelings. Did it occur to you maybe she needed a little of her in the quilt you made so "expertly"? This way she also had more input and it made it even more special. She did not hide it in a closet, only embelished it to make it perfect in her eyes. After all it is hers now. Momma bear let it go. She still your friend and still loves you!
