I've given quilts to several family members, including my SIL. He's a very quiet guy and doesn't show much emotion (at least to the rest of the family) and I gave him a modified log cabin flannel quilt a couple years ago for his birthday--he was appreciative but his usual quiet self--but he uses it daily and won't let anyone else (my Daughter, his friends, etc) use it! Always says "your Mom gave it to ME!".
