BOB loves to quilt -
BOB loves to bitch -
And sometimes BOB makes a bitchin’ quilt - ;))
BOB has given hand-made quilts to family members on occasion -
Some recipients see HAND-made -
Some recipients see HOME-made -
BOB has received various reactions to these gifts -
THE GOOD -
Quilt made to match recipient’s family room colors and decor -
Quilt was hung on their family room wall in a place of honor - ;))
Quilt made by request in “blue” -
Recipient liked it so much - he/she was afraid to use it -
BOB had to insist that it be “used” and not just “looked at” - ;))
THE BAD -
Quilt made in gorgeous batiks -
Comment - “It’s pretty - but it’s not soft.”
THE UGLY -
Quilt made as a surprise for a special occasion -
And taking a considerable amount of time -
Comment - “Oh, it’s lovely - but those aren’t my colors any more.”
===
Any guesses as to which recipients -
No longer receive quilts as gifts from BOB? - ;))
But then again - it’s probably just me.

Disheartening, I know. I know I made something once as a gifrt that I do not have for myself. When I saw it more or less discarded later, I almost asked for it back.
But we hand over the rights to how a quilt is used once we give it away. Too bad in some cases. SIGH
SIGH - ;))
Lessons learned.....but is sure is disheartening to feel like something you put thought and time into was not appreciated.....
Yes, it is - ;))
