I used to make more quilts than I do now. I don't know that I have ever made 50 quilts in a year.....I think those who do, are often making simple quilts, probably small quilts, not bed quilts. Since I have started applique--I think I make maybe 1 applique in a year, I have stitched up pre-cut quilts for charity quilts for my guild. I tend to think that as we grow older we don't have such a need to produce the quantity of quilts that we did when we were younger (and had a younger family, and more energy!). I think some of my better quilts have come when I am not in a hurry.
