Pink Ribbon Fabric

This is a bold request for fabric. There is nothing subtle about Cancer, so there is nothing subtle about my request!

I want to make a comfort or hug quilt for a dear friend who is scheduled for mastectomy. I am using a variety of fabrics that read pink, and a few cream as relief, but not snow white fabric. I have a nice selection but would welcome some more, especially the pink ribbon theme fabric. I'm going for variety ... a pink scrappy look. I need just small pieces. I am working with 6" squares AND 1.5" by 8.5" strips, matched or not doesn't matter. BTW, this design is from McCall's Quilting ... the cover scrap quilt. NAYY.

If you can help, I'd appreciate it. I need to have the top pieced and ready to baste by about 20 September, so I'd need to have the fabric fairly soon. I certainly appreciate your thoughts and prayers for my friend, with or with out fabric!

Thanks bunches, PAT

Are you still at your same address? I happen to have about 70 bajillion 6.5" squares, and I'm sure SOME of them are pink. :)

Pat, are you looking for anything specific? Stripes? Florals? Batiks? Or does it matter?

Pat - having had two sisters who have gone thru this misery (oldest sister died last summer - bless her heart), I would be only too happy to send you some squares. Please send me your address and they will be in the mail this week.

No ribbons, but I do have two unusual pink prints. Would you like some?

Pat -- I have PINK RIBBON Breast Cancer fabric. It has the actual breast cancer awareness pink ribbon logo printed on it. Not sure how much of it I have but I'm sure it's enough for you to put to good use. I'm getting ready to head out on holiday at the end of the week so don't have time to actually make a block but I would be more than happy to send you the fabric for you to use in any way you want. Would that be OK? If so, please e-mail me your snail mail addy and I will get the fabric in the mail ASAP. CiaoMeow >^;;^<

I have a big piece of the pink Loralie "On the Mend" with ladies in chemo caps and bald. I knew I would need some for somebody someday. Tell me your address by email and I will send you a piece. Debra in Idaho

Patti: Well, anything that 'reads pink' even if a print. IOW, not a lot of high contrast color in a print. Batik is fine, as is any quilting cotton. Stripes would work especially well in those strips I mentioned! Thanks for asking.

If I receive any squares that just won't work (some fabric just will not play nicely!) I will set those aside for the preemie quilts that VCQ is doing this year, and/or other charitable projects.

BTW: the pattern is featured in the *August 2007 issue* of McCall's Quilting magazine.
