Something for you to consider. When my girls are here we pile up together in one of the bedrooms to laugh/talk. Some of us on the chairs, some on the bed. I had a quilt with buttons sewn on it and we found out very quickly how uncomfortable it was to lie on that quilt. I also liked to lie on the quilt to read. Needless to say, that quilt is folded up and put away until I can get to putting applique over the centers of the Dresden plates.
