I am making quilts for my grandchildren to give them at graduation. Other than that, I only make quilts for family members who I have discussed making a quilt, the colors and gone over the design. I know they want one, and know what they want. I know that not everyone is a "quilt person" and I don't want them to feel bad not using it. The only exceptions I have made to this was a throw quilt I made for my sister-in-law who walks a couple miles every day, even in the winter. I know she gets very cold so I surprised her with one she can wrap up in when she gets home. I also made one for my 96 year old former 4-H advisor after talking to her daughter as a surprise. Both were thrilled.
