Everyone I've given quilts to has seemed to like and enjoy using them. Of course, they have been mostly for family and friends who I pretty much knew what colors they would like. Only one DIL never responsed to my offier to make her a lap quilt for their TV room so I haven't made her one for herself. I have several for each of her 3 DDs and one for her DH (my DS#1). I've also made lots of quilts for babies and most of their Moms never have touched a sewing machine so they were easy to impress with my limited quilting skills. May in Jersey
