I awe and oooh over beautiful quilts all the time. I think the woman ( not lady ) was rude to tell your son he should not do so.

Same here. Was she just trying to stop the child. If so, shame on her. Who doesn't want their quilts oohed and aahed over?

The lady said to stop that!

How many awe and oh outloud when they see something they like?
Just had to share this funny with you.

THAT lady was a "jerk-ess" :thumbdown:
