Our speaker told us she had an appraisal done on an elaborate wedding quilt she gave to her son. Her daughter-in-law took the quilt to be dry cleaned (oh no) and they "lost" it. When they told the dry cleaner they would file a claim with their appraisal, the quilt was "found".
Another woman made a quilt for another daughter-in-law and the girl was quite dismissive until she saw the ribbons won by the woman. For some shallow people, status and money are all they recognize.
