Putting a name on a quilt
#41
Hi ,
I am an intensive care fostercare MOM.I want to speak my mind. Hopefully if the word gets out stealing a childs belongings will not be tolerated .
Foster homes should not be keeping anything that belongs to the child. I agree in placing the childs name on the quilt..but make it noticable. Hopefully that would keep anyone from keeping a childs belongings .
My husband was a foster child and his foster family kept his Christmas presents. It was a long time ago but he remembers it clearly. Esp the big red fire engine he lost.

I iron white fabric on freezer paper run it through the printer, take it off freezer paper and iron it on wonder under then peel back off wonder under then iron it onto the quilt. If ironed good ,it will stay.

Somewhere on here I read someone say that they wouldn't give out any of their personal ID info and I agree with that also. If I knew the child I would put on their my first name or something the child could identify with but family couldn't trace. I the child knows and likes you, depending on the child's age, they'll remember you and very well may try to find you. If you're making quilt for a child you don't know you could put a the date on it or some clue that will help them remember where and when it was given to them. Unfortunately in this time of volatile people, we do also have to protect ourselves and privacy.
By all means, make the quilt with all the love you can put into it and yes, please do put the child's entire name on the quilt large enough so there will be no mistake as to whom the quilt belongs. That's the best you can do.
Hugs,
Patty
