I make lap sized quilts. The people I know don't need bed-quilts for their decor. And I donate a lot of quilts to my project Linus chapter. I include my name with the quilt and I ALWAYS get a thank you card from the organization. I also have another organization that gives quilts to Cancer patients that I support and always get a thank you in some way.

I realize though that I make a lot of lap sized quilts. I haven't counted how many I've finished this year, but I'm guessing it's 25-30. All of them are not masterpieces, but they are fun and creative and it makes me happy to sew them. I can try a pattern from 'my stash' or 'my scrap bin' and know that it doesn't have to be 'perfect' or even 'complicated', but it will make someone smile.

If I spent several years making one quilt into a masterpiece, I'm sure I would not just give it away lightly!
