I am not a fan of birthing so all of mine have binding on. I sew the binding on by machine and then my sisters like to hand sew the binding to the back. I do about 12 quilts a year plus 10 to 20 receiving blankets and several fleece. All blankets are child or lap size and for charity. In the last 2 or 3 years, I have also made a bed size quilt for 8 grandchildren and now working on queen or king size quilts for my children. I hope to do as many charity quilts this year because I am trying to reduce my stash which does pretty good as long as I don't go into a fabric store.
