what do you do with your finished quilts and quilting?
I love quilting but after a while you dont know what to do with your finished quilts and quilting unless you are going to sell it.What do you do with yours?
|
Keep some, give as gifts, gift to charity
|
Visit a nursing home and see people with their lap quilts. There are never enough. When they play bingo, they always need gifts for a winner. A lap robe would be greatly appreciated.
|
If you like baby quilts, inquire if the Premies at your local hospital could use some.
|
I do sell a great deal of what I make. I also give mine to family..and friends. Seems like when I get started , and by the time I finish someone makes a comment about how much they like it... so off it goes.
|
Give as gifts to friends and family. Give to charity. Give to auctions for charity/local schools/fundraisers. Rotate them on my beds every couple of months. Hang as decorations and rotate those every few months.
|
For things i want to keep, I layer some on the spare bed. I have a carpet cardboard roll that I roll some on that stands up in the spare closet. I put smaller things on the plastic hangers with clips and hand them on the spare rooms closet rod.
|
Honestly I am just geting to the point where I am not sure what I will do , I guess the best thing is charity.
|
Most of mine are given away. Wedding gifts, baby gifts, I'm thinking of you gifts, and donations.
I have given away hundreds of quilts. |
I give mine to fund raisers and charities. My kids and grandkids already have enough.
