OMG I am so glad that you got the quilt! It just proves that many people do not appreciate quilts or the love that goes into them. Some people only like 'store bought' also.
There is an old story about a woman who gave her son an heirloom quilt for a wedding gift and shortly after the newlyweds got back from their honeymoon they were showing mom around their new home and barn and mom saw the quilt in the barn being used as a dogs bed.... horrors!
Love the bow tie quilt!
