Different areas and different groups have different requirements and needs. Some of what I do is pretty "taste specific" and I prefer to give my projects to places where they let people choose as opposed to you just get the next one available. Currently I'm concentrating on twin to queen sized quilts, particularly for aging foster kids and families in transition/emergency housing.

When I belonged to the large guild that did Ronald McDonald House, we had plenty of smaller quilts and needed those larger than one width of fabric. Being the mother of a son, I also felt we needed a bit more rough and tumble and less pink and dainty, so I mostly worked on full crib sized to twin sized projects which I felt were more gender neutral.

The guild that most of my Tuesday group belongs to does a preemie project where they have very specific requirements. They also have a general "children's corner" and unlike my previous guild, typically need more in the girly spectrum of things
