My comment was delivered by my grandson, who is 11, this summer when they were visiting. I covered him up with the quilt I just finished hand quilting - took me a few years on and off. I said "Raymond, I made this quilt" and he said "Wow, Grandma, it looks just like the kind you can buy in a store!" But he said it with admiration and I took it as a compliment. I've made him some things over the years, mainly halloween costumes and pajama pants, and one whole cloth quilt (he was born before I began quilting) and he always thinks Grandma can "whip it up" whatever it is.
