You posted a wholecloth quilt earlier this summer. I was so in awe of your quilting. This one is also amazing. I so admire your work. Sometimes it is just like cooking, I never enjoy the Thanksgiving meal as much as I should because I am around the fragrance all day. I enjoy it when someone else does the cooking - because doing the cooking (or sewing) mutes our senses. I think that might be what happened to you. Enjoy your quilt and if you want to - surprise your daughter, the joy of her loving and enjoying it will spark happiness and satisfaction in you.
