When I give quilts to others, I tell them I expect them to use them and use them hard - they are not works of art, but items of comfort and joy. Of the many baby quilts I've made and given over the past 15 years, only the newest ones (this year's) are still in pristine condition. It warms my heart when my quilts are "loved".
I'd join you in a cookie, but I am back on Atkins, so I'll have to have a few cucumber slices instead! Cheers!
