How can I help?  

This is a question people sometimes ask me.....well you can help us by donating fabric....we like to use 100% cotton fabric....Spotlight and Lincraft have fabric starting at $3 per metre...like homespun in plain colours we can use it for sashing and binding.Any bright fabrics we can use for charm squares to make up quilts for kids. Larger pieces of fabric we can use for backing so it doesn't have to be fancy quilting fabric, as long as it 100% cotton it's great.

We need sewing cottons in the most common colours like white/grey/black/pink/blue/but we can use other colours as well...

You can help us by donating some of your time....we have a couple of sandwich days a year...LOL no not eating sandwiches....well we have them too ...LOL but these are quilt sandwiches where we layer the quilts and pin them so they are ready for quilting.....

We need people that can sew basic straight lines...that means you can help us quilt....some people like to hand quilt...which ever method you prefer that's ok with us...

We can also use any spare blocks you might have....or made that quilt top now you aren't so sure you like it....well we could use it to donate to someone....

Would you like to donate a completed quilt....that's ok too we label the quilt with your name and town and then donate it to a patient...

Basically we can use all the time..... Fabric/ thread/ DMC thread /backing fabric /batting/wadding lace and Rick/Rack items for crazy quilting/ Calico.


Well I hope this list gives you an idea of the items we need and use.....


Thanks for reading
