I make them for our fire department and they say that the people aren't picky at all about the size. I also make one for each new person who arrive at the nursing home.My granddaughter and I make the quilt and we wrap it up as a gift. Then She gives it to the person at the nursing home.I think it makes her and the person feel good. She also carries the quilts into the fire department.I was taught to always think of others and I am passing it on to her.
