Beautiful quilt, and I'm sure it wasn't easy. How large is it? Your fabric choices are wonderful. But I'm a little confused, because I don't see anything wrong with what the friends said. If they had also made that quilt, should they pretend they hadn't? It seems to me that they must have liked the pattern to have purchased it and spent the time making it. There must be something I'm not understanding. Didn't they also compliment your work?
