[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]OP was looking for ideas; she did not specifically mention quilts.

NPs followed up with "not a quilt" and I questioned if they meant store-bought or GENERATIONAL - meaning passed down from one generation to another.

I would think that passing along a generational quilt to an incoming family member would be a gift of great value.

But based on responses it appears unanimous that if the gift isn't directly tied to the specific wants of the individual and their personal interests and desires, then don't give it. That includes generational quilts.

That's how Early 20th Century quilts wind up being sold at flea markets for $20.

You conveniently forgot the part where not one but two of us said offer it to THE GROOM, and/or the actual blood relative. That’s who the quilt would have meaning for. Why are you acting like only women should be offered quilts? Bet you won’t answer.[/quote]

No, you are conveniently wrong. Identify in the above post where I said "women." In fact, I specifically said, "incoming family member" which could be a man or a woman. Or do you think gay couples are not deserving of receiving heirloom gifts to pass along to their children one day?[/quote]
