    Oh yes! I've got a couple that are completed just for me. Most of my WIPs are also for me. Selfish, aren't I? LOL I often have to put mine aside to make gifts. I do a lot of gift giving! I'm trying to get back to them. I've only got one planned as a Christmas quilt, so the pressure is off this year.

    Does anyone do or make something just for you??? But you can !!! and should. There is nothing like sleeping under a quilt you made yourself! I enjoy my "work" so much that I cannot give it all away.

    Ok I guess I am weird I guess I am really weird to y'all. I have made about 12, and the only one that has left my house was to my daughter. I just finished another one, and was thinking about giving to my niece for her wedding NEXT WEEK, I just can't let them go, they are my babies. What is wrong with me? I love and admire and I think I am scared they won't appreciate the hard work, so I keep them, so maybe one day hummmm when I get enough I can slowly let them go. I guess I am selfish.(THEY ARE ALL FOR ME).:)

    Yes - I have made two quilts just for me. However, the latest one - my sis has designs on it, so it may end up at her house... we'll see. :)

    The reason I began to quilt is because I LOVE quilts. I make them for myself mostly. I have made quilts for immediate family and very close friends. From now on they are all mine unless I want to make one for someone else - hasn't hit me yet. I would like a collection of different traditional styles in my house. The grandkids love to cuddle in them when they are here.

    I've made a couple for our house. I can't say they're specifically mine though as I do share them with DH and the cats.
