Are you worried that your gifts are never good enough? Certain that your friends and relatives will write you off as cheap and no longer worthy of their love and friendship?

As one who struggles with gift guilt but at the same time loves to both give and receive handmade gifts, I almost stood up and cheered when I read a very impressive academic study. Me? No more guilt. That heavy cloud has been lifted as I write here with one hand and knit with the other. OK, just kidding, but that should tell you of my great love for crafting.
