I got really offended when I worked really hard making my mother in law a table runner and placemats with matching napkins and she never used it. I was expecting to see it on thanksgiving sometime. Well I asked her about it years later and she said she thinks my father in law sold it at a garage sale!!! :thumbdown: :cry: :evil: :roll: I have vowed to never make her a quilt and if she asks me to I will tell her "no way, I'm afraid it will end up in a garage sale someday and that's way too much work and expense for that!"
