You can say what you want about puffier quilts but one summer while I was in an accident while on vacation I bought a used machine and fabric and made a quilt. I knew a woman who had a quilt machine in the area and she had begged me to show her how to use it. After the quilt top was pieced I took it to her shop and showed her how to load the quilt and thread her machine. And as I quilted it I showed her how the machine worked. I brought the quilt back to where we were staying and did the binding that night. The next day was July 4th and they were having activities on the commons so I took the quilt to the senior center because they still did not have a raffle quilt for that year. They said they had never had a skinny quilt before but since it was already July and they didn't have one they guessed they would accept it. They hung it right up and started selling tickets for it. They had never sold out of the 5000 tickets they had printed each year until that year. They even sold out a second 5000 tickets they had printed. And they said that instead of just buying 1 ticket everyone was buying lots of tickets. When they asked people why they said, You can always add another thin quilt if it gets cold but if a thick one is too warm there is no way to fix it! I only quilt thin quilts with cotton batting and if someone wants a comforter they can find someone else to make it!
