Last year I made a rag quilt the shape of a dog to give to a girl here in town that was alot of time and money and really wished I had kept it. I put hangers on the back so she would put it on the wall and thats not where it is now. She put it in the crib and the baby sleeps on it. They were away for a week so I was taking care of their dogs and took a peek and seeing the shape it was in I just cried. She is pregnant again and I will not make her anything ever again. I was making a baby blanket for someone else recently and she seen it and asked if it was for her new baby and I just laughed and said yeah ahhhhh NO.
Some people just don't realize the time and money spent to make quilts. I hope she appretiates the quilt your making for her.
