The reason I asked is, I donate quilted throws to our local Cancer Center. The last time I dropped off a bundle, I was asked if I would mind if they took my picture with my information, to put up and post. I told them no, but thanks. I said that I make and donate the quilts in hoping to make someone's day just a little bit better, and for myself, to give back for the kindness shown to me while I was going through some serious medical treatments. For myself and heart, I prefer to stay anonymous. They of course know my name, but it isn't posted or public and that is enough for me.

I make bags for each throw and I tie a label to the drawstring of the bag that has a heartfelt saying on one side, and on the back, I post simple washing instructions. No name, and no label on the quilted throws, either.

I just finished another bundle and will probably drop them off before Christmas. I don't belong to a guild so all the work is done by myself. One of the office people was surprised that it wasn't work done by a guild. -- nope, just little ole me, thankful to still be quilting!
