In my guild of well over 100 members there is one long suffering member who, year after year, is in charge of charity quilts primarily for Head Start and the local hospital pediatric dept. She not only sorts, washes and irons the contributions, she devises simple patterns, cuts the appropriate pieces and gives out kits at meetings so that all one has to do is follow the directions. She seems to love the challenge and distributes the entire Head Start supply of nap quilts each year. Those quilts take a beating with constant rough use and laundering so they have to be replaced annually. She loves the challenge and to my knowledge has never asked for someone else to take over except during her recovery from a stroke several years ago. I hate people like that as they always make me feel like a useless slug.
