    Default Downy Quilts For Comfort

    Downy will provide a free quilt kit (donation) with a pattern. Also, this site has a great tute for the Double 4-Patch.

    I made some several years ago. This reminds me that I'd like to do it again. It was fun!

    I've made several of these quilts - request one from them and send back two. Their fabric makes one quilt and my fabric makes a second. They are fun and there is a great need.

    I try to donate every 3 months. Seasons change...I sew for them. They usually get a box of 4 quilts.

    If you would like the kit, to make and donate, they are currently behind and are not taking requests for the kits at this time.
