We have a nursing home in the small town where I live, and I had wanted to make some lap quilts for the people in it, but after talking to the person in charge, I decided NOT to. The reason: if the person dies and the members of the family don't want the quilt, the home tosses them in the TRASH. I asked, why didn't they just give them to someone else, it's not like they were personalized, but they said, NO, in the trash they go, so they get no quilts from me. They did ask for scarves and gloves though this year, so I donated 18 scarves.
