I feel your disappointment and pain. I have a sister who believes she should grace everyone with her opinion, unsolicited or not, and that they should listen to her and they are dirt if they don't. Good thing she doesn't visit!

Diane - this is the bomb! Doesn't this describe people to a T? Let opinions fly and do what you want and need to do!!!
Here is my answer to too much of anything: IT IS MY HOUE; I LIVE IN IT; I WILL PUT OUT OR UP, ANYTHING THAT I WANT TO LOOK AT; APPRECIATE; REMEMBER, ETC. Do as you wish and remember the tale of the father, son and donkey. Going to market they were all walking; first person to go past told the child he should be riding - too young to walk that far. Second person along shamed the boy and said the father should be riding - he was older and couldn't walk as well. Third person came along and told them both they should be carrying the donkey. When they arrived in town; everyone laughed to see them carrying a donkey when they could have both ridden it in.

Also have quilts on the bed and maybe one on the end of the bed also. I hung a quilt in a spare bedroom for display and will change to display quilts. Also have a wall hanging above my sewing area. Is this too much? I know people that do ceramics and have figurines all over the place. A relative said, my house looks to quilty! I just said, I love my quilts and like to look at them. Just curious what others think.

Gosh, your relative would have a fit if she came in to my houe as I even display quilts in the bathroom! LOL I live in central MO where a lot of the older women believe that a quilt is only to be used on beds. I just told them that my wallhangings are my "fine art" and that by hanging them on the wall, folding them over benches, etc. I can actually enjoy them. After all, how much time does one actually spend in their bedrooms awake enough to enjoy that beautiful appliqued quilt that is on their bed?
