Why would I do that??? I like making the quilts for them? I spend 100.00 on materials when I make quilts that are not scrappy. For those quilts I make for family. I make scrappy quilts when I donate for raffles...my point was I want my kids to know they can donate to Goodwill if their taste change and don't feel like they need to keep the quilts I gave them forever. I donate mine also when I have decide I have had it for a while and need a change. I work full time so most of my quilts are for family members. I donate cash mostly for causes and sometimes a few quilts that people raffle for their causes. One thing that drives me crazy is people always think we should make our quilts to donate to every cause...and always ask me to make quilts to donate.
