That's a great idea. :) I have one that I'm probably going to give away (my first one to go out of here) and I'm having a wee bit of a problem. I was DEFINITELY giving it away before, and now I'm undecided.
But if it does go, I hope I take a pic of it!

The worst of all are the ones that leave the country and you will never see again! I made quilts for a couple soldiers a time ago and I know I will never see those quilts again. The soldiers made it home but the quilts didn't. They are hopefully being used well.
I just make sure I fondle, hug, and smell any quilt before it leaves my house.

Nope, its liberating. I always have another waiting in the wings to get started. The only time I'm sad is if the receiver could have cared less. Then in my mind I plot ways to sneak into their house at night and swipe it back!

No. I love to finish things and giving it away is the final step in the process. I always feel like I have accomplished something great when I hand it over. And I am usually a little bored with it by them and looking forward to the next one.
