I made my MIL two big lap quilts. She called and thanked me for them, which is all I expected. I wasn't her favorite DIL. I found out later that she bragged to anybody that visited her about the two lap quilts I made "just for her." When I was up there just before she passed away, she couldn't see well anymore, and hadn't seen me in a yr. she showed me the two quilts telling me who made them. When I said I was glad that she liked what I made her, she said Oh, your the one, I guess you do love me. It was a good feeling for my DH and me that she did like the quilts.
