When I give a baby quilt I add a small note to "Dear Mommy" : Miss Beth says I can sleep with this, drag it thru the mall, wrap the dog in it and if it wears out ,she will make me another one! Love (insert baby's name) There are only a few things that upset me when I give a quilt as a gift: #1 don't call it a BLANKET #2don't tell me you will put it away for good. It was meant to be USED..even if it means being used on the ground for a picnic or if it lives in the back of the car #3 not saying THANK YOU. I am not a good letter writer, never have been, so I don't expect that. But a nice thank you...or tell me how its being used or that your mother said it was pretty. I will climb off my soapbox now! (all those have happened to me..esp #3 almost makes me want to stop gifting quilts. Except I KNOW the babies love 'em!)
