I don't have a magic wand story but I was showing a block-of-the month (West of Baltimore) quilt that I had made to my son. He said, "Boy, Mom, I bet you could sell that on e-bay for $100.!!!!!! It was a raw edge hand applique quilt that I had invested almost $1000.00 (thousand) in and I worked on it about 6 years. I gave my daughter strict orders that he DOES NOT get any of my quilts when I die. The king size "Foldy Stuff" courthouse square quilt I gave him years ago has never been on his bed that I know of. I had failed to get a picture of it, so not long ago I asked if I could do that. He got it off the top shelf in their bedroom. I've also made all four grand children and one great grand a hand embroidered ABC baby quilt. Haven't seen them at my son's house but the ones I made for my daughters girls are still being used for lap quilts.
