I enjoy winters in Arizona and quilting with gals in my park. This year we completed 100 quilts, half going to Haiti and the other half to Ethiopia. Now big question, with the airline Load limits, how can we get the quilts 50# plus a couple sewing machines and a little personal gear to Ethiopia. Any thoughts appreciated.
The overload is verrrry expensive. Thanks

What a wonderful thing to do.
Have you tried shipping companies instead or maybe if you have someone you know in a UPS or Fedex store that might be willing to donate to a special cause even by sharing the cost with you and you can ship with them by air. Try to approach some of these air shipping companies, you'll be surprised sometimes of what you might get.
Good luck
