You know it is sad when all of your hardwork goes unappreciated! I only make quilts for family and close friends as gifts but I do tell them a coupld of things!!! "If your quilts needs repairs, bring it back to me" "If you don't want it anymore, bring it back to me" "If you take it and decide you want to give it to someone, keep it in the family or bring it back to me" I always tell my family member that "if they do not like it, tell me ASAP!" I can make another one for that person and give this one to another family member! I think sometimes our the attachment we have to a quilt we've made!
By the way, my immediate family size from parents to granchildren (4 generations) is 60! (and still growing) I will be making quilts for them the reat of my life!
