orphan blocks

Jul 24, 2007 11 Replies

Hi All, As some of you may know, I make quilts for Pine Ridge Reservation. I do string, scrappy and orphan block quilts. If you have an orphan block laying around, could you send it my way. It doesn't have to be a perfect block at all. It can be any color, size or pattern. I want to get as many as I can to send before their cold weather hits and it really won't be that long before it starts. My brothers and sisters need all of the help that others have to offer.



Thank you in advance and I hope I didn't break any rules by doing this..



Quilty Hugs, Deanna



Deanna: Don't worry ... this is certainly an acceptable posting. We here in RCTQ Land like to support quilts for charitable purposes. Please email me your snail address. I may have a few to send. PAT

Deanna > Hi All,

Deanna,

send me your snail mail address (nystitcher1972 at yahoo dot com) and I will get some of my orphan blocks out to you. NOw, I know you mentioned, but I forgot or else misread it all...where in VA are you currently??

I'm on the outskirts of Waynesboro....over the mountain from Charlottesville

Did you two get my emails? I did it from reply to sender... Let em know...

got the one at the yahoo address. The address here is one that is actually nonexistent :-)

Deanna, I need your mailing address too. Polly (reply should work just fine for me)

Polly, did I send it the right way? Did you get it?

Deanna

Received just fine, Deanna. I put your package in my car just now - waiting for the next one to make a trip out of the Swamp to a post office. I just had no idea how many orphan blocks there were here. Good grief. Polly

Oh Polly, you must live in the gulf region, Louisana????? Thank you so much for helping. I have been making string blocks for a pastel quilt all day. I figured it was time to switch to a quilt for a girl. I've been doing really bright quilts and wanted something that reminded me of sherbet and I think I got it right.

Deanna

Not sure if I emailed you. But thank you so much for all that you sent. This is going to help so much. i have to tell you that you are a good piecer.

Thanks again, Deanna

What an AWESOME project! Very, very cool, Deanna!

I've got a few orphans that need a good home ... if you want to send me your snail mail, I'll get these out to you right away! :)

Holler at me at connieATsewverycreativeDOTcom! :)
