My friend Regina has launched an effort in tribute to her mom, who passed away earlier this year. Please join me in making and sending some four patches to Regina.
From Regina's blog:
How to Help:1. Make light-dark 4 patch block(s) using 2 1/2” squares (blocks should finish at 4 1/2” square). Use any colors you like for your “dark” but please try to use white or ivory for your “light.”
2. Send the finished block(s) to:
4. The goal is 1000 blocks and $4,000 by February 28, 2012.
5. Received blocks will be assembled into “comfort quilts” and donated to the Anderson Medical Center in Anderson, SC and the Pluta Cancer Center in Rochester, NY.
6. Each block donated will enter your name into a drawing for “participation prizes.”
7. Donations of backing fabrics, batting and services are also appreciated.If you have any questions, please do not hesitate to contact me.
