[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I am hoping that when people say they don't want quilts, they mean store-purchased quilt. There may be a legacy of hand-sewn quilts which have been in their family for generations, made by grandmothers or great grandmothers. The fabrics and embroidery may tell a story of the family's history. They are truly made with love, care and thought. Years ago, women may not have had the money for new fabrics so they used worn family clothing to build the quilt. Not long ago, I was at a flea market and bought a beautiful hand-made/hand-stitched cotton quilt from a woman in her 70s whose mother had made it. She said no one in her family wanted it. I happily told her it would be in a loving home, with me. It cost $20. [/quote] No. Most people under 45 don't want quilts, homemade or store bought. It will end up at a flea market. If this is a legacy item, it's more applicable to the son, not the DIL. [/quote]
