quilting is a wonderful hobby and most of us make quilts to give away- but only to those we want to give them to.
Beautifully said! We give all gifts from the heart but our handwork is a special show of appreciation and caring.

As beautiful as your quilts are, I doubt it would compete with cold hard cash, unless your family is in competition for your services and trying to one-up each other.

I suggest you run over to Kids R Us or Babies R Us and get 'em a gift certificate. Thus is both obligation and duty fulfilled. If anybody asks, you're fulfilling charity needs, or out of the country or whatever.
