Along the same line...When I see a comforter in a store that is amazing, I think, "But you have 20 quilts!" And the feeling passes. If I was gifted a quilt, I would be gracious, but loving it would (secretly) depend on the quilt. I would appreciate the work, but I'm not fond of traditional patterns.
I don't think that I would gift a quilt to a quilter. I wouldn't gift a stained glass window to another stained glass maker, either.
