I agree with everyone else. Never too many quilts. You make them because you enjoy and love them so surround yourself with what makes you feel happy. I have quilts all over my house. I might change them with the seasons but I just love to look at them. Telll your relative that it is your house and you love it the way it is and if it makes her uncomfortable then maybe she should stay at her own home which I am sure she has decorated with the things that she loves. :)

Just tell them that it is another source of getting hugs. Then give them hugs.

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.

That made me think...
we have such an old house (circa 1738) that some stuff just doesn't look right in here... hence no purple walls... but i got purple into every quilt...so most rooms have a touch of it anyway...
