And mlsa (David) - I loved your reply, also!
I love all the answers that everyone is saying. I am glad that I posted this question. I would love to receive a quilt from anyone, anycolor. I have never gotten one as a gift. In fact, I have rarely gotten any hand crafted item from anyone. It seems that I am the only hand crafter and I know that is not true. I do have a niece that quilts and so does her mom and her sister. I know that even if it was the most hideous quilt in the world that I would feel so blessed and so honored that they thought of me to gift it. I would never get rid of it. Although, some of you here have given me good suggestions of how to use it.......like under the bedspread.
I love the response about the Uncle who made the very eclectic quilt out of any material he could find. Bless his heart. That is a quilt that I would keep and cherish.
