Okay guys/gals,
It's quilting time. A few months ago some of you may remember that I suggested that each of you send in a piece of fabric that you like with your name (real and handle) how long you've had CH and general location. If you're a supporter do the same except for how long have you had CH would become how long have you been supporting us sufferers.
Well here is the addy so start sending them in so I can start quilting.
For the US:
April Brown
3130 GoForth Rd.
Kyle, Texas, 78640 USA
The fabric piece should be no smaller than 5x5 (inches). As soon as the quilt is finished, it will be auctioned off with all proceeds going to OUCH.
Cheers,
Juvy

What an absolutely perfect idea. I can’t imagine a better keepsake/time capsule. Excellent work! Can you use a donation to help with the materials?
Rock on,

David,
Since you guys/gals will be sending in the fabric, the only thing i will pay for is the thread and stuffing which i have an abundance of in my house. Thanks for the offer though.

Juvy,
Just a suggestion, but how about if everyone sent you in a quilt square with their name and date in fabric paint on each one?
You don't need to do this, but it was just a thought.

edited to add- Or, they could even iron on a picture instead?

Mel,
I'm planning on embroidering the information on each square, give it more of a homey touch and doesn't take very long. As to a picture it would be really small but if they wish to send it that way, that's great
