I totally agree with this. When I make a quilt for someone specific, I spend a lot of time thinking about that person while I work on the quilt. Even when I make a charity quilt, I am thinking good thoughts for the person who will receive it. I think my blankets come with a lot of good will, and I don't know that you can say that about a $10 throw from Kmart.
