Sounds like a certain PL co-coordinator I no longer give quilts to~~~~I got verbally reamed just because I made a quilt with a Bible story book panel on the front....AND how dare I make quilts with POLY knits???? They were cute, bright quilts and I made a bunch for teen boys at her request.....Well, those polys will almost certainly outlive the cotton ones after upteen trips through the washer and dryer!
Those you give a quilt to will NOT care that you practiced FM!Q--they will not even notice mistakes. I had some big boo-boos on some quilts while teaching the GKs to lay out designs and to piece, but nobody noticed the goofs but me!
the funny part was that even quilters did not notice!
