Actually, I wish that was why they were put out of sight. Years ago I made a wallhanging and matching pillow for my inlaws. I specially picked out fish fabric because they liked to fish. I even gave them the rod to hang it with. When I never saw it, I asked where it was. My MIL said she didnt know what to do with it.
Then I made a special one for my son and DIL. Never saw it again. Guess it was too something for their decor. It was a contemporary one, too, not country style. So, after that, I said I'd never give a quilt to my family again, that I'd sell them to others or give them to my friends. And that's what I've done. I do all work by hand, no machine, so it takes me lots of stuck fingers and backaches to get one finished. Makes me want them to be appreciated after all that work.
Yes, I have pictures of some quilted items. I've just sent sweatshirts with quilt blocks hand-appliqued on them to some of my friends. Some of them have been sold through BST recently, too, so you could look them up there. Here are some examples. The first one was done in someone's favorite colors and she knows who she is
