Because very often at a guild, there'll be 15 or 20 or 40 quilts being donated to

Knitting caps for the kids in the NICU and the cancer wards and all of this stuff.

And so who do they give the quilts to?

The battered women's shelters, to the homeless shelters, to the...

Like I say, to the cancer wards, to anybody that's desperate and needs – they make quilts for cops to have in the trunk of the car so that when cops have to pick up a kid from a house, child protective services, they will give the kid a quilt so that they have something of their very own.

That somebody made for them.

So what I would say is go to the guild, your local quilt guild, and find out who do you donate to.

And you can donate it to them, and they will give it to somebody in the local area, which I think is the very best thing.

At least for me, there is a lot of oral history and stories that are not written down.

So unless you're

directly interacting with quilters, keepers of this history, sometimes it's hard to come across some of that information.

I actually have like the books right next to me.

I have this book here, The Encyclopedia of Pieced Quilt Patterns by Barbara Breckman, which is like around 200 pages.

And it's just different pages filled with patterns, different patterns.

And I think the one thing too, at least with researching more about quilts, is sometimes there's patterns that are referred to by one name in some regions and different names in different regions.

And so if you maybe know,

the one name, but you don't know the other name.

So for me, having that encyclopedia was helpful because there were some listings of some of the other names that could be used, that are used by different communities.

So those are some challenges that I've definitely found.

You can be petty.
