I do have several, most of which were made either by my grandmother, mother, or MIL. I loved using them to make "pallets" on the floor when my children and grandchildren were babies. So comfy and colorful!

I did make a quilt, only 1, I picked a very difficult quilt for the first one and honestly still use it everyday, just don't want to make another. I have purchased two quilts in the last year. And love the warmth and character they bring. Your quilts are quite beautiful. Love the drunken quilt one.
