Nice to have you pop in Musicmaker. Of course we all remember you. One of the gals in the guilds here does a LOT of charity quilts. She donates many through the guild charities along with CPS her choice charity. It has been amazing to see how many folks give her fabric. It sort of snowballed and every time I see her quilts she points out who gave her certain pieces of fabrics. She does scrappy but she gets more than a tad of large pieces too. If you can get the word out of what you are doing you might be surprised that fabric will come your way. Both local guilds here are good at helping with batting and Hobbs does have good stuff through their websites for charity work. Maybe even some folks here might want to help? I can't imagine messing with a bunch of paperwork would help a lot unless you get to working with a lot of other folk and quilts. Hugs to you and your dh. I don't have your blog addy. What is it?

I'd like to begin providing quilts, both lap and bed, to the cancer center my husband has been going to for chemo, and I don't know if I should just make a page on my blog about it, and hope people contribute orphan quilt tops and quilts, or become an actual non profit organization with all the requisite paperwork. I realize that RCTQ hasn't seen hide nor hair of me in quite a while, and that there are probably many here who have never heard of me, but I remember this being a place where I can get LOTS of advice on nearly any topic imaginable.
