I was lucky, because at one point I was taking a Mystery Quilt "class" once a month and finishing a small quilt top once a month. After two years, you end up with a bunch of quilt tops! LOL Well, I took them over to my SIL's house and spread them all out on the floor and told every woman there (I think there were 5 or 6) to pick the one she liked. Slowly but surely, I got each quilt finished and each of them gpt her quilt. Since they knew it was in progress, no one bugged me about making a quilt, I finished a lot of UFOs, and I got good homes for my quilts. The remaining tops have been donated to family auctions, so several cousins now have quilts, too.
My new thing is pillow cases, and everyone wants a set.
