after my sister allowed her 4 labs to sleep on the floor on a bed quilt i made her, i'm very careful about who i give a quilt to. they usually drop a hint or two.
some people actually appreciate small gifts more than they like bed quilts and that's fine with me. i can generally tell who they are.
i'd rather see my coasters or pot holders being used properly than see my king quilts on the floor with animals sleeping on them.
