    I understand your dissapointment that she did not seem appreciative over the wonderful gift and all your hard work, but life is too short to live in that moment. Over the years I have had many things like that happen and I use to cry and think on it for days. Today by the grace of God, I give a gift freely and if they want to go put it in the trash they can. I've too much to do to spend another day trying to figure out what the heck is wrong with people. My husband's dear GM made me two precious baby quilts for my first son I had intented to pass them to his first child. I knew they would end up in the first garage sale so I kept them to use in my home for the grandkids. I still appreciate GM for taking the time to make something so special for my child. Hope the hurt heals soon.

    I agree with some of the other comments. Wait & see if she doesn't acknowledge it later. It's a very pretty quilt & I know you put your all into making it for her.

    I had that happen to me as well when I gifted a twin quilt..she opened the box, said "it's a quilt" "thank You"

    then was going to past it to the side without opening the quilt and showing it....well, I opened my mouth and told her to open up the quilt so that she could see it....she did...and everyone else oohhhhed and awwwed...

    she not so much..

    oh well I had fun making it and the guest enjoyed looking at it...

    I am sure she did not mean to be rude. The quilt is absolutely adorable, and I am sure that in the future the soon to be mom will appreciate your thoughtful and beautiful gift.
