More wonderful donations arrived last week while we were away and they will bring lots of smiles when we can deliver them. Maria Wilson (WA) donated the first two lovely quilts for boys.
Patricia Findlay (Qld) made this lovely unicorn quilt from a cot panel and added blocks and borders to make it appropriate for an older girl.
Dianne Muir (Tas) made the next 2 fabulous quilts and she has been a very generous supporter of our bushfire quilt drive.
On our way home through Gippsland we last week, we called into Moe to see Petra McLennan and some of the "Quilters off the Green". They are a fairly small group who donated 10 fabulous quilts as well as some tops, backing etc.
There is such a variety of sizes, styles and colours for these quilts and they will be so treasured when we can start distribution again. In the meantime, I am looking forward to our DD, her DH and our precious grandsons arriving back home tomorrow night, even though they have to self isolate for 14 days. It will be hard not being able to give them kisses and cuddles but it will be a relief when they are safely home. We won't be baby sitting for some time now so I plan on quilting as many of the donated tops as possible. It will be good to focus on the positivity of making donation quilts and take a temporary mental break from the troubling times we're currently experiencing everywhere.
Stay safe and take care.
Hugs, Jan Mac
