This is really awkward subject for me. My sister has started giving me handbags for my birthday. They are beautiful and I'm sure quite expensive, but very small. I have never used one of them because my bare essentials won't even fit. I keep telling her how about if we stop buying gifts and just do something special together. So far she hasn't agreed.
I stopped gifting quilts to family. No thank you and they don't take care of them. Yes I know it's a gift, so let it go, but it bothers me, so I've stopped doing it. I'm using my stash for charity quilts and then will purchase supplies for one of my bucket list quilts at a time. I figure I'll have to live to 120 or more to get all this done!
