These 2 quilts are for a mother & daughter who I am sure will use it with their son/grandson so it will be washed more. The fan quilt is for the mother's mother and I am hand quilting it. I wanted to give them all at the sametime and it would of taken forever to hand quilt all. By taking them to be machine quilted I just don't feel like I did it myself. :( :( :(
