I am sorry for you. You will always remember your first quilt. I have two small granddaughters and I have to put everthing away because they get into everything. Good luck.

Depends on how old he is whether he thought he was helping. Sounds like a prank to me. Maybe a teen or tween. They can do some awful things in the name of humor.

And seen no humor whatsoever in his messing with the project.

I totally understand - my middle child is "challenged" (she's an adult now and still lives with us) and she NEVER would have done something this dumb! I have used her as criteria ever since she was tiny - if SHE knew better - then for sure, so called normal kids know better,
if SHE could/can do it, then there's no reason so called normal kids or adults can't do it
she was in special ed all through school and worked in a sheltered workshop for awhile until we took her out...
That's the main reason I don't buy a lot of lame excuses - I have a handicapped person in my home and she does fine -
I've never expected her to do something that I know she can't but there's no whining "I can't" before even trying...
and absolutely no "I didn't know, I didn't mean it, I was just joking" for stupidity or ignorance or meaness -
apparently people don't expect anything out of anybody anymore - awwww, poor little kid, he didn't know - yes he did, especially at ten...
