    I sure wouldn't let it upset me. You know you had a beautiful quilt & wheather we want to admit it or not, there are just people out there with NO taste! Aren't you glad it isn't us?

    Yes, I did all handwork, hand quilted it and it was the size of a bedspread for a queen sized bed. It is now at the dump. :(
    Did I miss something?? How did a beautiful creation end up in a dump???

    What you missed was the people that got it didn't know any better and didn't take care of it. I don't know if it really is at the dump, but I am sure its no longer any good. It was all hand work and you can't just treat that like a blanket and wash and dry it over and over without bad results.

    Thats what I meant. The dump line was a guess. :) Sorry!

    Aren't you glad that person didn't win it?

    Some people are thoughtless. But , sometimes when I'm at a frustrating moment in the quilt - I'd have a drink-if I drank.

    Ahh, got it. I guess I took it literally. I feel for you. That would make me very unhappy :(
    Here's a HUG for you :)
