I changed my view of how non quilters react to my quilts. I was given a gift by an artist friend of one her paintings. The painting was excellent but I did not like the subject of the painting at all. I appreciate the thought and effort and I know for her it was a very personal gift to give. Every time I see the painting I feel bad because I don't like it. I think of this painting when I think about giving a quilting item as a gift.
