LOTS! Have given many away [don't keep track] and have a lot here in my house. Making lap quilts for cancer patients now.But also have a blue and white log cabin I want to start. Soooo many patterns saved sooo little time to do all of them.....should have started quilting a long time ago.

I recently gave away all of my finished quilts, to family members. However, after my mom passed, I brought home the quilt I had made for her, back in 2009. It's a twin-sized TIC and the first real quilt, I ever made. This one, I'll keep. Before this one, I had made quilted craft items but nothing big enough to actually be called a quilt.

I'm now ready to start on a new batch of quilts.

I have made 12 quilts since 2012 and I have given 7 away and kept 5 (two of these are utility quilts in the car). I'm getting ready to make another quilt just for me.

I've made hundreds, I have about a dozen I've kept. The rest were given away to charity or to whomever I wanted to gift them to, I think most are well loved, I've replaced quite a few that have been loved to death!!!!

I've made less than 10 quilts so far, but I've only given away one so far. I'm thinking about what to do with the rest, haven't found anyone I want to give them to yet. One of the quilts though is mine! I'm keeping it on my bed. And it'll stay there until it dies!

I have over 15 quilts of my own. I've been quilting for years. I would say for every one I keep, I give one away. Some quilters give them ALL away. I don't do that!!!

Dh hasn't chosen a pattern yet. Sending 2 baby quilts to my sister whose 2nd DGC is literally on her way as we speak. Water broke this morning. DIL only believes if the quilts weren't made by her side they deserve no respect. The quilts I'm sending; (1) repair and (2) panel that needs binding. It's going to my sister's house so she has something for both grandkids to play/lie on the floor or bed. Otherwise it would go straight to the dogs and cats. I gave one quilt to a niece for her baby and it ended up in a whelping bed. Then got pitched. I made a matching diaper stacker and one of the cats gave birth in it. I only do for those who I know would respect them.
