While I said I just make a second quilt for me.. I have given quilts to both my DS and his wife.. and my DD and her husband.. I've give numberous ones to charity and several to each grandchild. I've given ones to friends and extended family.. I didn't make a second one for myself of those.. I gave them gladly and seldom feel any separation anxiety over them.. only joy at seeing how happy they make the one I give it to. Now if I went over and found that one was being used for a dog bed, I might feel differently!! So far that has never happened to me.
