I help with fundraising for my QFK chapter and normally make the quilts from my stash only. That way I can be more creative since it's not a pre cut quilt.
|
I try to send Quilts For Kids at least two quilts every couple months. If you go to the Downey.com you can get a pre-cut quilt sent to you to make. You make it and then send it back with a second quilt, made from your stash.
Also you can make pillowcases - 1 million pillowcases.com - good way to use scraps - wild patterns and colors are welcome! Nigeria |
Why don't you try Quilts for Japan.com or Quilts of Valor.com. Nancy Notions also have some ideas. Just go to their web site.
There are a lot of places to go. Try tour local Hospice office. They give them to Nursing home patients. Everyone really appreciates all things received. Nigeria |
I wasn't familiar with this group. I send mine to the Linus Blankets but will look into this one. Thanks
|
I am heavily invoved with our local Linus Chapter. It produces at least 600 quilts each month which we distribute to about 10 hospitals in Maryland. I usually procude between ten and twenty a month personally.

I sent 13 last year--6 theirs--7 mine. This year I just recently ordered a kit.
|
I have contributed three so far... one with their kit, plus an additional two from my stash. Great organization!

I do, I've made about 35 and I have a stack in a spare bedroom ready to go.
|
I have done about 8 and working on one right now. I usually send one along with the one they have sent me. I love working on quilts to give to other people I have done a few for Linus Project too.
