Although an immediate phone call to you would have been nice it has only been a few days since the gifts arrived. Doesn't seem like it is past the time of common courtesy for a thank you. If you are worried whether or not they actually received the quilts giving them a call would definitely be appropriate.

Your gifts are beautiful! It's really a shame that some people do not realize the time and love, never mind the expense, of making a quilt for someone. Would you feel comfortable calling and just asking if they arrived? If they don't say thanks at that time, then I think you will get your answer on whether to keep sending gifts.

I love both esp the purple, They are both beautiful. relatives can be ill mannered. What kinda person dont even say "thank you"?Sounds like the kids take after their mom. I would never waste my time making them another thing. People that dont quilt have no idea of the time and money.

Judi Marvin too

I would tell them they were sent accidentally and ask them to send them back......they obviously do not appreciate your work and love......

Find a trusted charity which will acknowledge and appreciate your gifts -- Salvation Army, Quilts for Kids, Project Linus, for example. There are so many people out there who are in immediate need. Check with fellow quilters for even more agencies which will be most grateful. How about all the recent tornado victims who were left with nothing?

If mom doesn't acknowledge presents, that's where the kids got it from. I guess I'd just stick to buying something. I know when I make something for my DIL and son, and DGD's I always get a thank you by phone, and email, and a written card. Some times I think she goes over board, but I'd rather have that then no acknowledgement at all. Sorry this happened to you.

Those are beautiful! I would call to be sure they got them. I'd also offer to pay for the postage to send them back if they don't like them before they end up on ebay...

Gladys

I like that.
