Quilt # 19

diabolo quilt for quilts4leukaemia

Made by Nicolette in Holland for Alexandra in Canada.

An Idea

We are approaching Quilt #20 and in order to celebrate this momentus occasion, I'm asking for your help.

This is the quilt.




The blocks have been made by Karol Ann, Anne and Linda.

The border fabric was supplied by Tonya.

What I want you to do is to find me a person to send it to. It must be a little girl - I can't somehow see this as a boy's quilt - and I would prefer the recipient to be in Europe. Recently a lot of the quilts have been going to the USA and beyond so I think it's Europe's turn.

You don't necessarily have to know the recipient. You can do a Google search, surf blogland, look on Facebook or anywhere. You might have read an article in your local newspaper, or even seen or heard something on the local news.

You must then contact the recipient's parents to seek their consent (I always do this anyway), mentioning why you are contacting them and the Quilts 4 Leukaemia blog/web site so they can see what we do.

Then send me an email, or leave a comment here, with a link to the child's blog/web site.

The person whose request is successful will receive their own Q4L mini quilt as a thank you.

(Quilt #19 is being finished which is why this one is 20)
