I think we have all had people who don't appreciate what we do and the gifts we give. They don't realize that when we give a quilt we are really giving a part of ourselves. But then you have someone who is so thankful that it makes up for a little of the other. I made one of my Godsons a quilt a good 25 years ago when he went to collage. He still has it. It is in absolute tatters because it was loved to death. When they had kids it was used at the "sick" quilt. His wife has patched it so much there probably isn't much of the original left. Last year she said it was time to retire it and all of the kids (teenagers now) had a fit. It has made me feel so good all of these years to know how much it was loved. This year I am making them a new one.
