They love the aprons, they wear them daily, at least the elderly ladies I visit.

Please understand that I mean no offense but what is it about the Ukraine that draws you to do such a generous thing when there is such a huge need for help in this country? I admit I know absolutely nothing about the Ukraine so that why I'm asking.

Welcome to the QB from another Missourian!!! How much fabric per apron do you need? I guess that you have already put up a notice for your church members to donate any extra fabric that they might have. Even older cotton skirts have a lot of fabric in them. Do you go to Goodwill stores as they even have colorful sheets at great prices, etc.

I went with a church group several years ago to the Ukraine...We were teaching at childrens camps.. it was so awesome.
The childrens were like sponges and wanted to know and learn as much as possible.They were so much more receptive and appreciative than most Aerican children.With the financing I'd go again in a heart beat...... Good luck on ur mission......

I would be willing to make one or two and send them to you if I were to have a pattern or directions to make them and I would be willing to bet a lot of board members would to to help you out and help the ladies in the Ukraine

Check with your local quilt guild. Many times they have yards and yards of fabric that has been donated to them. They might be willing to share.
