I am sorry this happened to you. The quilt is a precious quilt and I think once they got it home & had a chance to look it over, I bet they will love it too. As was mentioned, they may have assumed it was a store bought blanket. And non-quilters just do nto know what all is involved in making a quilt. Try to let it roll off of your shoulders and just know that you did a wonderful job on a very cute quilt.
