I've thought of simply making only the tops many times and just donating them somewhere. This would help me use up my fabric faster, and besides I've come to realize that I enjoy sewing more than the actual quilting. It was easier when I had my quilt frame, could load a quilt and within an hour or so have it all done but the binding. With advancing age it becomes harder and harder to wrangle a quilt around a domastic machine. Maybe that why I've gone to more Kennel Quilts and Pillowcase challenge items?
