    It's a compliment to a quilter to have the quilts used. Have made a few that I know are not being used and it makes you kinda sad.

    How nice you were able to see them being used. I love it when I see one I have made being used.

    That's the nicest compliment you can receive.

    My greatest compliment was when I made a quilt for my pastor's daughter and she came to me a year later and said that she wanted one for her other son who was born a year and a half later. She said the first son drags his around and refuse to go to sleep without it. Also when she posts pictures of him, he is laying on it, wrapped up in it etc. So since it is being loved , I made one for her other son tooand I know that its being used.

    I have my quilts that I make for the family long armed quilted planning on them using them. I have some foe me that I use and then I have others I never want to wash. I have a double one that I hand quilted and I don't want that one used.

    I think it's the greatest compliment to go to a family member's home and see their children cuddled up, dragging around behind them or fall asleep in their crib/cradle/stroller in one of my quilts - it would be a shame to have something made with such love and care just sitting on a shelf in a dark closet
