Twenty + years ago my MIL sent home the most lovely quilt for our home. It has remained on our bed ever since my hubby walked in the door with it. I have washed it, air dryed it, had grandkids sleep on it, puppies lay on it, and to this day it is still one of my most prized gifts. But I use it, and I know each stitch that is in it was put there with so much love and tenderness. I miss her, her quilting knowledge was amazing and she did the most beautiful work. When she passed and we went out to MI to clear out her little home, no one wanted all the quilted wall hangings!! I brought them all home, and put them up immediately. They still hang in home, and I love them. I guess what I am trying to say, does anything really matter as long as they love the quilt?
