The insert that came with my QFK kit had a challenge statement, asking volunteers to make a quilt from their stash as well as completing the kit. I have had this kit for longer than I should have and want to return it. I will most likely make another from my stash and send it to them at a later time. Probably with the next kit quilt that I do. Ok - here is my question: Do all of you complete a second quilt before you return your kit? Thanks for your input!!

I have. An extra one or two. It is not required. I just find it easy to just make 2 or three all at the same time.

Almost a year later and I still have to put the binding on the kit quilt. But I did make a top from my stash-have not sandwiched or quilted yet. I should finish this one and send it and then send the other one later and pay the extra postage. I feel terrible having it so long so from now on, I won't request kits. I'll just make them from stash and send them as I get them done.

btw I pieced both at the same time and it was super quick. It's the sandwiching that takes me forever (no big area to do it easily).

It is usually the sandwiching that takes me time too. I have a place, the church, and I have help, my DH, but he likes to do several at a time, (usually 3 or 4 max) but is not fond of running over there to do just one!

The first time I just sent the quilt from the kit back. The last week I sent one from my stash with the kit quilt back.

I make the kit they send me and then make one from my stash and send both back at the same time. I wish I had time to do more for them.

I ordered 2 kits at once and I made them and my mom ordered and made her quilt and I sent them all back together.

I never quilted a quilt. I have tied them- they say not to tie so I don't know if I should just make it and send it unquilted and explain that I don't know how to do this or just send it back untouched.
