I hate when this happens. Gave one to a relative as baby shower gift, ended up in a whelping bed. When my little niece saw a photo of the quilt I made for her before she was born, she recognized it as being in the whelping bed. She brought it to her mother's and gma's attention. She asked why something made for her was given to the dogs. I believe that little tiny human has more respect in her pinky finger tip than others among her family and friends. Her little heart was broken because they through out her first ever quilt especially for her.

He said they loved it to death. also, he kept the backing side up! go figure. No more quilts for him, ever! I just too the blocks and hand quilted each one, then put some sashes between. have fun with it.
