Sounds like "friend" doesn't appreciate how much money, time and effort goes into making a quilt!--or even a table runner. Put your tongue against the roof of your mouth and make a sound followed by forming a circle with your lips. Practice until it comes easily! Perhaps "sorry" is a kinder word but you get the idea. You don't have to make such items just because somebody asks it of you. I love the runner you made though. Wonderful choice of colors and the hearts are extra special. If this is for trading, somebody's gonna get a great deal there.
