I totally agree why would the charity quilts be deemed less worthy of the best work I can do? I agree with using donated fabric. But if the quality of the fabric is too low I wouldn't use it either. Our guild makes hundreds of quilts most of them tied but I would not be ashamed to own any one of them. The least quality fabric I would accept to put in the quilts is the best Joann's or Hancock's has to offer.
