    I make quilt a few quilts for charity. I donated a quilt for a drawing for the Cure for Cancer. They made about $2,000.00 from a raffle. I make quilts for the VA and baby quilts too, but mostly sew for Con-Kerr cancer and make at least 10 pillowcases a month for our local group. We give to two large hospitals in the area, and need 80 pillowcases a years, because they try to give every child admitted to the hospitals a pillowcases.

    I never birthed a quilt. I like sewing on the binding.

    I, too, birth them but I also stitch around them for added stability.
