    Mine have all been gifted. One stayed at the house...it was a gift to my husband. The rest are snuggling up with other folks I love.

    I make most of them for gifts, some for charity, and some for me. I make them with the intention of using them. I do not do them for shows or raffles.

    I make them for all the reasons listed above. I have been making quilts for 20 plus years and hope that those who receive them enjoy them. Right now I have started to make "Cancer Comfort QUilts" and give them to any one who is going thur Chemo treatments. I just started this the first of the year so haven't made only one an gave it away The blocks for the second one are made just have to put it together. I have been commissioned to make two other quilts for before this Sept. They will be totally made by machine.

    I have given every quilt I have ever made except for one. That one is currently at the LAQ and I am anxious to get it back! I have made lots of tablerunners and such, but most were given away as gifts.

    All mine have gone to family members. No one in my family should be cold I guess.

    I make them to give away, and I also use the ones I make for me.
