aww thanks...i was wondering....oh i love Laurel Birch designs ...i will look around for scrubs....i love to repurpose used clothes....and i will check labels!!!
Most I find are 100% cotton--I always check the labels. If they are a cotton/poly blend I do not buy them. I recently found two large Laurel Birch scrub jackets--Score!!--for $4 each. Each jacket will provide about 1 1/2 yards of fabric.

My guild has volunteers with longarm machines who will do the quilting, and other volunteers will do the binding. Thanks for looking!
