I have chosen to kinda stay off the beaten path as some others have stated... while , I'm sure the Organizations are great. I find most limit me as well.. I have been quilting and sewing for our local Veterns... I have focused on the local veterns hospital skilled nursing unit ( an hour away.. but still many local folks there) and the veterns in our smalltown nursing home..... It feels as if I have found my niche.... no deadlines, no pressures, I can do my own thing and try new patterns and techniques as I desire. They have been VERY receptive and appreciative. ( staff as well as patients) U will find the right place to donate.... sometimes they just slip up on u and u wake up one day and realize... this is what I was meant to do.... this is my niche.... keep the faith... enjoy ur quilting/sewing and u will find ur place....
