    Good for you for not getting her another gift. Maybe she got the message. The quilt's adoreable.

    Good for you that your lovely quilt found a home. It is so hard to take when someone does that. I hope that young lady grows up and smells the coffee someday.

    this is why I no longer make quilts of any kind as gift....Some people see it a being cheap!!! it's hand made so it did cost a bundle. Do people realize that fabric cost anywhere from 10.00 to almost 15.00 a yard today...what about your time is that free....okay i will stop now before i hurt myself.. I am happy the cute quilt found a new home, and you did the right thing by not giving her anything....

    You just solved my dilema ! I have a niece that is having a baby this fall and is a snob also. Why she is a snob is another story; can't stay in college; can only work as a waitress, living at home and not married, and on and on.....I just can't bring myself to make her a quilt for her either because I just don't feel like whatever I do will be "good" enough for her. Think I'll just give her a gift card !

    Glad your quilt found a good home.
