Know one knows the value of a quilt like a quilter. The receiving party may not of know/understood the time and effort that you put into the project. With all that being said, I think that you have reason to be a little miffed. You also didn't say how you got into the project. If it were me, I think that I would chalk this up to experience. Just because were quilter, it doesn't give people the right to use us.
