I gave it to my current mother-in-law the night before the wedding. I don't know if she'll actually take it out of the little box it came in (clear lid so you can leave it there for easy display) so I can't confirm the quality of the fabric or anything. But I will say that my MIL immediately burst into tears and hugged me and so on. I didn't even have to say anything. Ha ha. Maybe it's just her and the fact that we've been very close for many years, but I think this topic is a good way to start a good relationship with your mother-in-law.
