I have read for awhile now that many of you make and donate quilts to charities. I don't have time to make quilts but now and then I would like to donate some of my block sets for someone else to finish and donate. How would I do this?

Oh yes, any local quilter would be more than happy to have the blocks to finish into a quilt! You might also search the Internet for a local Project Linus Chapter. That group makes quilts for seriously ill children in hospitals. I am a Project Linus blanketeer and thoroughly love making their quilts. I know your blocks would be so welcomed by someone in your area. Good Luck in finding them. Try asking the clerk at a quilting fabric shop. We quilters hang out there you know! lol

Check with your local ASG (American Sewing Guild). Many of them do charity quilts and would welcome your blocks. If you have a difficult time finding them, contact one of your local sewing dealers, or LQS. They will have the information you need.

I, myself, don't have time to make quilts for charity (I do other charity sewing) but I have a friend who belongs to a group who does an amazing amount of charity quilting. If you don't find someone in your town or here, I would love to have them for my friend.
