My Mom made quilts for each of her grandkids - some of them ended up lining PICKUP beds - rust, fishing remains, hunting remains, etc. No respect.
I also don't give away very many. I don't make very many, as my health is pretty bad. I'm just stacking them up. When people ask what I do with them, I just shrug. When I die, my two daughters and one GD can sort them out. I hope most will go to the GD, and I hope she can appreciate them. But at that point, I won't know or care.
I grew up very poor, and giving away something (that I've put several hundred dollars plus many hours into) just doesn't come easily to me. Yet, it's hard to sell them, because most people want to pay so little for them.
