I do not like to do actual quilting, so I make quilt tops and donate them along with matching backings to Project Linus. There are several ladies in the area who love to quilt but not make the tops. A marriage made in heaven -- they appreciate me and I appreciate them. I donate roughly 30-40 quilt tops almost every year. I keep them simple -- strips, blocks, etc. but try to keep interesting color combinations. I make different sizes. If you get on the internet (Project Linus), there is a list of suggested sizes. I like to make the larger ones which go to pre-teen/teen because people tend to make more of the smaller ones and the program often runs short on those for older kids. It is truly a blessing to be able to help ease someone else's pain.
