Yes it is hard to give them up with all the work we put into them. (the 2 I made for my grandmother I made for me she changes her decor like we change our underwear so one day soon it will come back to me she always sends home the gifts we give her!!)

Once I so fell in love with the Community Quilt that I was making that I just had to ask the committee if I could switch it with another from my collection. I sent them a larger quilt and they didn't care at all which quilt they had. It's still one of my favourites.

I try not to have a destination for the quilt before I make it. As I work on it, I let it talk to me and tell me who it should be for ... me? or someone else?
Plus if I determine in advance, there's something about the pressure that builds when under the gun!

Even still, I can't wait to send her home to her rightful owner.
