No, I agree they don't all have to be RWB. But the quilts I'm making are for local warriors about whom a group of us read articles in our local newspaper or hear about on the local news.....and virtually all of those have been male. These fabrics were way too floral for our guys!
Besides, the donated fabrics could also be used for nursing homes, cancer patients, spouse abuse centers, childrens' homes, and other of our community quilt projects through the guild. As I have not been able to attend our community group for a couple of months, this was my way of participating a bit until I can go with my machine in hand to help. (Too heavy to carry right now!)
