Maybe her thoughts where hurry up and get through each gift, so that people where not just sitting around being board. I'm sure once she gets it home and starts peuting things away she will think about how special it was of you to make it!!! Great Job! :thumbup:

Sometimes appreciation of a gift is lost in the excitement and multitude of gifts that need addressing at a shower.
If it had been given during a vist the reaction might certainly have been different.
I'm sure she'll come to realize how special and personal it is as she uses it.

The problem I think nowdays is the gift wish lists at so many stores. The idea started out that someone out of town could choose a gift that the couple/bride/parents to be needed. What it has turned into is "this is what you will buy for me". Individual gifts chosen by the person paying for the gift is behind the times. True, there are those who appreciate handmade items. But it is few it seems.
I think your quilt is perfect for a baby and if allowed to know the quilt, would love it to pieces. :)

I find nowadays they want designer this and designer that they have no idea that quilt is worth more then any designer stuff that is over priced and won't hold up like the things we make. It's a whole new world out there. My friend just went through this too. I would ask her if she doesn't like it to give it back and you will get her something else. I'd buy something from the store but not a designer one...Buy her diapers she'll need them. The quilt was beautiful. When my niece got married I made them one but I was so afraid she wouldn't like it and do the same thing she did, but what she said was I was hoping you would make me a quilt I will cherish this always. I was so relieved. She is now divorced but she got the quilt.....
