Yes it took me a lot of time and money to make it, but I loved you enough to give it to you.... love me back by using it however you want to. If, in time, it wears out and I am able to, I will make you another one as you tell me all the times you used the quilt and how it never sat lonely in a closet. It is your quilt now... not mine.

This is how I feel too. I feel sadder seeing them hid away in a closet than I do seeing them where I think they shouldn't be. Use it up! Wear it out! I'll make more!
