That said, better that than what my mom is constantly telling me "I just don't get why people pay so much for your quilts. It just doesn't seem right." Needless to say, I haven't made her a quilt and don't intend to. I just focus on my adorable little 3-year old niece who is absolutely fascinated by the quilting process and will listen to me talk about it for 40 minutes straight (usually she has the attention span of a gnat)! She goes around telling people that "everyone should have a quilt" & I trained her to say "if they can't make one, they should buy one from Auntie". Makes me smile every time.
