I have given away many quilts to many people, and nine times out of ten they have no idea of the work nor the $$$ involved in the quilt. I give it because I feel like they will appreciate it, know it is like a part of me, and that I am giving it to them because I care about them. Again, this is not always the case, appreicating it, I mean. But that is another thread. I would not worry about what it costs, if you are moved to give, then give. Isn't that what the season is all about anyway??? It might just be the best gift her child receives this year, who knows? It is the giver...meaning YOU, who really receives when giving a gift of oneself. Once the "gift" leaves your hands, it is no longer yours and what happens to it is no longer your concern...it is no longer yours....do I make an sense?
