A relative made this quilt and put it up for sale in a local shop. One day she visited my home and saw her quilt. Why do you have this?

I told her I liked it so I bought it. She said, You don't want this scrap quilt! If I had known you wanted a quilt, I would have made you a fancier one. " Then she asked, "Why do you like it? " I said, "I like it because it looks happy.

" She started laughing, then said "that's funny, because I was happy when I was making it.
