I hate that, too. I made it to be loved to pieces! I'm fortunate that my family does appreciate all the things I make them. Especially my DH. The first nap quilt I made him was in the spring & it was warm outside but not hot. I heard the A/C click on & said "Why are you turning that on?" & he said, "So I can sleep under my new quilt"! What a nut!

Your DD sounds like a little gem! Give her a big hug from me & my puppy dog!
