AGREE 100% Darcene - "quilt" means "love" to me :lol:

I haven't seen it! My adult newphew really uses his quilt and I recently replaced it. He uses it when they go camping and I was so pleased when he said he wore it out!

It hurts my heart a little, but when I have a grand child I want him/her to love the quilt I give the same way.

I haven't seen it yet, but I am going to be looking for it. I am all for loving our quilts and using them.

One quilt that I made for my granddaughter when she was born has been neatly folded on top of her bookshelves ever since I gave it to her, almost 7 years ago. I wish it was loved and used.

OH, I am so GLAD that quilt was used. I don't make my quilts for ribbons or for display, (unless they are a wall hanging or table topper) I make them to use and that's what I tell them when I give them away. I have not seen the commercial, but sad is one feeling I would not have.

I would love to have my quilts loved like this. That is why I make them.

I find my self yelling at the TV, "Pick up that quilt!". "Oh for Petes sake, watch what your doing!". And "Oh No!!!". Ya think they hear me! I have no clue what they are advertising, because I am busy watching that quilt! Poor thing! Jan

Nope, haven't seen it, but, I'll be looking for it. Sounds cute.

I've seen it a few times. I love it! It's part Maytag, part Sears commercial.
