Keeping them now

scaroca

My quilts are given away. I worked my tail off last year and gave away 15 quilts for Christmas. Got only a couple of thank yous. Now this year my quilts will be for me and my husband. I guess not everyone loves quilts the way I do.

Most are given away because they are made with the recipient in mind. Sometimes I make a wall hanging or table runner for myself.

Right now, all the ones I have planned are for me. We moved into a larger home a year ago, and the place begs for wall hangings, table runners, ect. I would love to make gifts, but no one I know values hand made objects. From prior experience, I know things I make will wind up in the trash or goodwill box. My parents and my in-laws don't think items are valuable unless you buy them.

All have been given away and continue to be given away. One day a special one will be made for me.

Mainly for others. I and other volunteers around Gr Cincinnati area make them for the Ronald McDonald House Cincinnati for children staying there with families while have medical procedures at Cincinnati Childrens. We meet with house moms 1st Thursday monthly to teach them how to sew & quilt. QUILTERS, BATTING AND JUVENILE FABRICS ARE ALWAYS NEEDED.

Mostly for gifts. I'm starting to make quilts for me and my DH, but they seem to always get pushed to the back of the line. :)

Usually i have kept the quilts that i have made, after all that time and tears that goes into one, its hard to part with it.

I do not have any quilts that I have quilted, for myself. However, I do have a puzzle quilt done in batiks that is waiting to be quilted - and it will go on our bed. I have wall hangings that I have kept -- everything else has gone out of here as a gift or a charity quilt. My time is coming!
