4 January 2021 Request List
Hello and sending my warmest good wishes to all for the New Year. My hope for us all includes more certain, safer and healthy times.
I am very happy to be presenting you with these requests....what a great start to the New Year to be thinking of others and enjoying some sewing.
There may be a delay responding to your emails today.....I have a family commitment first thing but will get on to replies ASAP when back at my desk.
Cheers for now,
Clarissa
Essential info and
weekly updates .....
Any queries you might have, please don’t hesitate to contact via the AHQ email
as per usual with any queries and we will assist you from there. We may
not know the answer but it will be our pleasure to research and get back to
you. You may find your query is answered by me or perhaps Alex,
Catherine, Courtney or Lisa. We will be ‘on duty’ in rotation. I do wish
however to bring to your attention the link to info regarding posting off your
laundry bag or quilt - click here for up-to-date info > http://aussieheroquilts.blogspot.com/p/posting-information.html.
If you have a quilt underway but are concerned you may not complete it by
the ‘post by’ date, please let me know; an adjustment may be available.
A reminder , when you are ready to post the quilt or laundry bag you’ve created, please use the PMKeyS number given you in any correspondence with the admin team. This helps the volunteer admin team keep a track of what’s been sent etc. The PMKeys number is included in the address details we supply for your recipient e.g. the 7 digit number in red below. Also, please use the Aussie Heroes P O Box address on your parcel in the event the parcel is Returned to Sender - the PO Box is a safe place in the event of any mishaps with postage.

Don’t forget to take a photo of your completed craft, email to AHQ with the name and PMKeyS of the recipient and we can include in the Weekly Dispatches blog and also add to the tally of quilts and laundry bags sent off to the troops.
If you are using a AHQ supplied prepaid satchel please kindly use the AHQ address
Aussie Hero Quilts (and Laundry Bags)
PO Box 248

as the Return / From
address on the reverse and also please hold on to the Tracking number – we’ve
experienced mail delays lately (haven’t we all?) and having the Tracking number
is very reassuring to keep an eye on the parcel’s progress in arriving at its destination.
Don’t forget, if you look at today’s Request List and need help choosing,
please feel free to get in touch to
discuss, we will be ready to reply and offer guidance by email. Our goal is to
help you find a request that you will be comfortable with doing. If you need a
crest etc we may be able to post embroideries / printed fabric
images or email some of these to you. Helpful info may be gleaned here http://aussieheroquilts.blogspot.com/2019/07/information-post-for-those-that-sew-for.html
I look forward to seeing the photos of completed quilts and LBs when they
are ready to post off.
As aforementioned I will respond to your emails when you respond to select a
quilt or laundry bag to sew. But please
don’t delay, make your selection, send your email through, say “Hi” and let me know what you’d like to sew this
week.
Wishing everyone a super week of sewing.
Clarissa, Alex, Courtney, Lisa, Kylie, Catherine and
Jan-Maree

Can you help with these? THANK
YOU!!!!!
You may be
aware of postal delays holding up timely delivery of mail. Despite that problem, the post by date for all
items on this list is 14 February 2021 please
or earlier. If you cannot make that date, please let me know.
Do reach out if you have any timing
issues and we’ll resolve one way or the other.
PLEASE note the date and let me know if you have any problems getting your
quilt/LB away on time. In fact, if you are going to be late posting it please
let me know BEFORE you post it. Also, if this time frame is too tight for
you, there are options, just email me to discuss, thank you.
PLEASE, PLEASE, PLEASE copy the ENTIRE line if you wish to nominate for a quilt
or laundry bag.
For example….
Marvel Theme.
Ironman M LB 1
This is really important to make sure that neither you nor I
copy the wrong number which could lead to me giving you the wrong details for
specific request. If you find it hard to copy and paste, please copy
the line out as follows…
Decoding The Columns
The first column is the theme or preferences requested.
The second column indicates the gender of the recipient.
The third column is as follows.
B=both quilt and laundry bag (feel free
to nominate to JUST do the laundry bag if you wish)
Q= just a quilt
LB = just a laundry bag

Please let the Admin crew know if you have any other questions....Just
email friendsofahq@gmail.com
Is it possible to put a photo or 2 of the block requests (#1) so I can visualise exactly what is needed.
