Default Change of life question... no, I don't mean THAT kind of change... !

Well, everything changes eventually.

I've loved having my little fabric business, but... it's a lot of hard work, a lot of worry and late nights.

So this summer when I got offered a "real job" that would pay enough to run the household, plus health insurance benefits... I couldn't turn that down! And having the opportunity to work just 40 hours a week instead of 70, well that just feels like a vacation to me.

Most likely I will be left with a lifetime supply of fabric to use for charity sewing projects.

Three possibilities are coming to mind: quilts for world relief, Project Linus quilts, and pillowcase dresses. For the dresses, I could use up a lot of the trims I collected over the years, too, and that would be good.

I bet a lot of people here on the Quilting Board have done charity sewing too.

So, here's my question:
Of all the charitable sewing projects you've done, which one(s) have you enjoyed doing most, and why?
