I can understand in the high excitement of a shower that she might no give this quilt it's due publicly. But not to acknowledge the uniqueness of this darling quilt, much less the time and effort, shows some very bad manners and poor social skills.

It's beautiful. Hopefully once she got home and actually saw it she loved it. One of my children is extremely shy and might have done something like that when put in the spot light. I hope that is all that happened. Anyways, it's a great quilt and I bet the baby will love it.

What you did made me laugh as much as the "extra 30 minutes of labor" comment.

The quilt is beautiful, and you mark my words...when the child is old enough he/she will pick up that quilt and love it, sleep with it and drag it all over the house and yard. Maybe then the mother will appreciate it.

See if she says something nice later on when the hormones have calmed, she can see her feet again and there aren't 75 people staring at her hoping she will hurry up and finish opening gifts faster...

Totally agree as this is how i was at my shower. Both my mom and mil knit blankets that i showed excitement over because they were obviously handmade but it just seemed like everyone wanted it to be done already.
