Hi Gals,

I haven’t done this swap in a while, but I’d like to make a suggestion.

I have several friends involved in Charity quilting for babies, children and RTC ( residential treatment facility for teen girls).

She told me that it’s hard to find fabric donations that are BOY themed.

How about some boy fabric swap. Younger boys ( easiest) or tweens and teen boys ; And needed.

Thank you for your consideration.
Mary

PS... I’m usually a Fabric Mule carrying donations to those who make up the quilts. My girl friend has a long arm, backing and quilts them up free of charge..

I also found it difficult to find boy fabrics...unless you opt for Liscensed sports prints. My little kids quilts go to Cook Children's Hospital in Fort Worth.

Marilyn, Do you quilt your quilts or tie them. When I vacationed in the Valley for a number of years our group made charitable quilts for Many charities and when a resident of the park went to the ER. Miss working with others to do this. We tied our quilts.

I do tie mine, and my grand daughter told me she nearly froze each time she was there...even though she had been gifted a lovely quilt, it was child size, pieced and quilted. Anyway, she said I should back my kid quilts with Fleece. So I do.
