Comfort Quilts

Post by gershwin64 » Mon May 24, 2021 8:15 am

Good morning ladies!
Thank you for your recent cash donations, they have helped out so much!
Can I ask another favor please? Maryz and Chickie have been helping me make the quilts and getting them sent to the recipients and I sooooo appreciate it ❤
Here's my favor..... can you make up some bindings and send to Mary and Chickie please? We all use the 2½" wide strips that are made into the binding. I believe 260" to 275" long should be perfect.
If you have any questions please message me.
Thank you all for all you do! Without you we couldn't do these ❤❤❤❤
Hugs
Tina

What colors do you need?

We have been working hard to put your donated blocks together and now have several tops assembled with many, many more blocks to go. If it helps to give you an idea of colors, I know the tops that I have assembled are mostly from past swaps: Christmas, winter, cupcakes, animals, fall leaves, summer memories, winter sports, and more, and could use bindings in blue, green, brown, red, green, pink, purple. The quilts that I have made usually take 6 strips for binding.

thanks,
We appreciate all you can do to help with this on-going El's Angels project.
