I'm not offended so much as disappointed. I put a lot of thought and effort into my gifts - be they quilts or some other item - and I like to know the person got it and appreciates my effort if not necessarily my taste (altho I try as best I can to go by what I know of their taste). I think the very least I should get is a thank you note of some sort...but then that's the way my Momma raised me and how I raised my kids. I make things to be used, not tossed in the back of a closet or something!
