Lorie............300 people at a baby shower.......holy cow........that is going to be a loooonnnnnnggggg day! If you feel like you need to go.......maybe just go for a little while & then tell them you need to leave.

Murphy..........I haven't had that (no response to gift) happen.........yet..........and hopefully it won't but I know it has happened to so many people on this forum. It is either no manners & common courtesy & rudeness or they are just clueless about the time, thought and amount of work that went into a quilt. It's probably one of those things we learn the hard way. I don't know whether I would ask about the quilt or not.........guess it would depend on the situation.

My to do list right now is:

Finish my mug rug for Christmas swap
Make several small wall hangings with flowers as Christmas gifts
Make pillowcases for younger ones in the family

The list for after Christmas is unbelievable long........so many things to try.......so many ideas.......my brain is full of ideas!
