Don't forget, with all the import quilts that have come into the country in the last 25 years, that "heirloom" quilt you see your neighbors putting on their car may have been bought for $19.95 in a discount store. Same with the ones you see in thrift stores sometimes. They are not all reason to feel sad.
Now the ones where YOU made and gave the quilt, and you see it being mistreated -- child, do not allow me to commence!!!
