I use my quilts every day. A quilt that is kept in a closet gets no love. It will not bring back special memories to people when you are gone. Quilts that are on beds, couches or picnics will be remembered and treasured when you are gone.
Do you really want to be the unknown maker of a beautiful, pristine quilt that shows up at the Goodwill when you are gone because your family didn't have enough fond memories attached to it to want to keep it? I don't.
