I know everything is easier said then done. When I would visit our daughter (she lived in Miami) I would take pictures of some of the bathroom tile floors. I don't think I will ever get a chance to quilt them but some are awesome. I do a lot of sketches of quilts and ideas. I know some people the same as you DIL and Son, they have their own ideas and if what you make doesn't fit it doesn't go in their house. Have you made anything that is their style, it may be out of your comfort zone but more to their liking. I know some people like ultra modern, I know from working with my DD and DIL that we have very different taste even though we like what each other does.
