It's Been Assembled, No Response

This is why I don't like to make things for other people. It would be so much easier if she would come, choose something and take it with her.
After perusing multiple fabrics and patterns I sent her a mock up of a quilt front asking for feedback. Did she like it? Did she want to change anything?
I suggested that I would wait 24 hours before proceeding to assemble the quilt front..
A day and a half later I have had no response, so I have assembled the quilt...now to sandwich it and quilt it.
It no longer matters if she wants to change something.

I was becoming more and more annoyed. She has since contacted me...loves the quilt....she had no intranet access for a few days.

@Morleyhunt Now, this is something that can happen. It's a relief to know that.

She had no internet access so she didn't get my email until Wednesday.

I really dislike when people don't get back to you in a timely manner.
I am supposed to be buying a mini-fridge off this lady. She was very quick to send me pics of it, and plugged it in overnight to be sure it works, etc. So I told her I'd stop by after work anyday this week, and so far nothing. She asked me yesterday if I'd rather she brought it to me at work and I said sure.. but I haven't seen her or heard from her since.
This is going to be a gift for my son for Christmas.. if I don't hear from her within the next week or so I'm going to end up just buying a new one.

It turns out she had no internet access for a few days. That was why she was delayed in responding to my email.

No internet access does make it difficult to check your email. I gu so I'm spoiled. It comes through on my phone unless I have it in airplane mode.

Now it's finished it looks even lovelier. I'm sure she'll be thrilled but it's a shame she didn't get back to you. A bit rude really.

It will be a few days before I start the actual quilting. Life has decided a sinus infection should keep me grounded.....I just want to curl up in a corner somewhere.

@JudyEv I'm feeling much better this morning. Today I can stay home an putter. Yesterday and Monday I spent most of the day running hither and yon.

@Morleyhunt I'm sorry you're not well. Hope the infection clears up quickly.

Thank you. It was really hard to tell what she liked and didn't like. She wasn't big on scrappy, but she also didn't seem to like it too matchy, matchy. I tried for a blend. She did see to rally like the colour lilac, so it tried to include some without it being overpowering.

@Morleyhunt Oh my. That had to make it hard since she didn't get on touch with you about it. It looks like you done a great job matching her likes and dislikes that you were able to gather.

She is an idiot if she does not like that beautiful quilt the way that it is.

If she doesn't like it, tough, you gave her a chance. I think your quilt is super amazing, you are super talented, I can't even begin to understand how quilting works!

That must be frustrating. She could have at least taken the time to get back to you. It is beautiful. I hope she likes it.
