What do y'all (notice the Southern-speak--I live in GA!) do with your quilts once they're finished? I know many quilts are made with a purpose in mind, like a giveaway, a raffle, a charity project, a gift, etc., but my question is more about those quilts that one makes without any purpose, just to try out a new pattern, or play with some cool fabric, etc. It's sort the same question I'd have for artists: what do they do with all the paintings that they create? Do they just pile them up in a corner (like I've seen so many do), and keep right on painting, regardless?
So, do quilters just keep producing and stacking their creations in a cupboard once they run of beds to spread them onto, or wall space to hang them, or table tops to place on? I'm curious, because I'm beginning to accumulate all these quilts and am running out of space! I feel like I'm missing something... Thanks! :?:
