Me: I’m going to send you some fabric pictures, I was thinking of making you a quilt…
Mum: Oh, I don’t need one.
Me: I was thinking you could have it over your legs in the evening…
Mum: I have a big furry throw for that.
Me: What about when it’s less cold?
Mum: I have a fleecy one. And if I’m cold at night, I have the one you made for your father.
Me: Oh. Ok then.
Mum: I’m not being ungrateful, I just don’t want you to do all that work when I don’t need it.
Me: I’ll be making it anyway, it’s just whether to do it in your choice of fabric….
Mum: No, really, thank you for the offer but no.
Oh. Ok, then. Thanks for telling me, I guess?
