When you buy a set of charms, you will notice that there is only one piece of each design. These sets usually don't have enough ingredients to make a quilt, so you have to buy yardage to complete many projects. A tote bag or table topper can easily be a "charm"
Jan,
I didn't know that. I'll be sure not to call my quilt a "charm quilt", but it will be a quilt made from charms. And, I really enjoy seeing everyone's pics of their creations too!
