type 'downy quilts for kids' into your search engine-
it is sponsored by Downy fabric softener= it is a national project- if you go to their website & click on the 'request a kit' link and sign up they will send you a quilt kit & pattern- they ask that you make the quilt- then make a second one (or more) from your stash-
the quilts are distributed to children in hospitals across the country.
they ask that the quilts be machine quilted & machine bound- due to the industrial laundries used in hospitals-
the kits are always fun- the pattern is a good one- they include the fabric for the top, backing & binding- you add batting
