One of the things I recommend is to ask the organization you're thinking of making quilts for, what preferences they have. A few years ago, a friend and I were going to make quilts for our local nursing home, but not for a specific resident, but whoever wanted them, the CEO said that would be fine, but when that resident died, if the family didn't want the quilt, then the nursing home tossed the quilt in the garbage. Needless to say, we didn't donate quilts to the home.
