I, too, have a large family. I have 10 siblings and their families. (My total extended family numbers 72) They all want a quilt. I am gradually working on getting one made for each of them but it is going to take a while.
All 4 of my children are actually bummed if they don't receive a handmade gift.
My 5 year old grandson already has 3 quilts (2 were "cheater" quilts) Every time he comes over and sees a new one in progress he asks if it is for him. This year he requested polar fleece jammies. I made him 3 pair.
I have 3 close friends who I know would appreciate having a quilt.
Everyone is wired differently. Some appreciate hand crafts others don't.
