I love the cutting process so I make most quilt kits for our charity quilts. I have never thought of sending out (as kits) the completed quilt top sandwiched and ready to "quilt". Some of our ladies may just LOVE to quilt. @ Petthefabric: how did you (or what did they) put the quilts w/backing and batting in? Our quilt kits fit in those gallon plastic zip bags, but a complete quilt would be pretty big. Maybe just tie it together with yarn or something?
