Default Quilts as moving blankets

On my way to take my husband to the airport this morning, we passed a semi rig hauling a flatbed trailer. The trailer was loaded with several large boulders that had been strapped down, and in between the straps and the boulders were - GASP - quilts!!!! I was horrified! Who knew that boulders were so fragile, they needed to be protected from chafing (or whatever damage the straps could do to them)?? One of the quilts was a double wedding ring. I had a hard time resisting the urge to tell the driver he was number one. My husband consoled me by telling me the quilts were most likely the soul-less, mass-produced type. Sniff. I'm so traumatized. I had to go home and eat a chocolate chip cookie and hug all my quilts.
