cricket, you need to give yourself permission to slow down and enjoy some free time. If only quilting gives you pleasure, then make yourself a quilt. If you feel a need to give to shelters and homes, then give fewer quilts or alternate shelters every other year. Obviously, only give where there is some appreciation shown - if not by the recipients, then by the staff. Should you switch recipients? I think 20 quilts for the drug recovery young ladies would be enough for one year. That's less than one every other week. You'd be doing something special for 20 deserving young ladies and you might have some time for yourself.
