I will look and you would be welcome to what ever little bits I may have if you would like them.

Thank you. It's very kind and thoughtful, but I don't want any more of it.

I would if she had appreciated the quilt enough to use--or even display it. But when I never saw it again, my feelings were hurt, and she has not appreciated handmade gifts from others, either. She thanks the giver, and kind of "gushes" over the thoughtfulness, but she'd rather have books as gifts.

I wonder why they never reissue best sellers? You would think it would be easy since they already have the plates for them to be printed.....
