My brother came by this evening and I gave him the quilt. He said, "For me?!?" He's a strong silent type but I know he was pleased. He said he'd hang it on the wall. I said... "It's a little big for that." :D I unfolded it all the way and told him on my queen size bed it will go over the pillows. He said he's gonna need a bigger bed, he has a double. I said no... that's fine it will just cover it more. He seemed a little lost discussing something like bedding.
I told him how to care for it and that the best thing was to USE it, put it on the bed. If he stores it, don't store it in plastic. If it's folded, take it out every 6 months a re-fold it on different lines.
I explained about the CW fabric and what it means to our family. I said it was tied, not quilted. He said "Oh. If you're not done with it...." I said no, it's done. It's just tied like grandma did hers.
He was bewildered but pleased. :)
