How can someone be offended about someone making a quilt for her. My mother made me some and used them in quilt shows and I was so proud of them. She will be sorry one day when the MIL is gone and there are no more prize winning quilts. My mother has passed and those are the most precious things to me along with the ribbons she won. All I can say is God Bless and maybe she will change her mind someday. Here's hoping.
