Aussie Hero Requests 21 Aug 2017......

Hi all

Here is the request list for this week…yes, I know it is dated for tomorrow but has come out today... yes, it is supposed to come out tonight and having tomorrow's date helps my filing system.... trust me!  

NOTE – if you are checking the request list from the blog and if you receive the blog via email DO NOT try to reply to me via that email.  It will not work. You need to use friendsofAHQ@gmail.com

A quick note… even if you check the request list every week, please take the time to skim over this preamble.  I edit it to make it relevant every week and I know that many of you are not reading it by the questions I am being asked. It takes you just a minute or two to scan it but takes me considerably longer to read and answer the emails I receive ….. please give me a hand in this. Your assistance is appreciated.


PLEASE, PLEASE, PLEASE copy the ENTIRE line if you wish to nominate for a quilt or laundry bag.  
For example….

Marvel Theme. Ironman

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…   Marvel Theme. Ironman  M  LB  1


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
F= female
M= male



LAUNDRY BAGS


I have a large number of laundry bags required for 1SQN Members. I have not listed all of them on the list as they are identical so a representative is on the list.
This is the super hornet squadron.  Some will need to be posted to their unit because I stuffed up and their requests went to the bottom of the list and I did not realise. One of the perils of working with a spreadsheet and sorting.. long story, and I must have been interrupted mid-task. Interruptions happen all the time but usually I pick up, not this time apparently. So if you are happy to make a batch of bags and send them to the Squadron please let me know.  The bags need to be black and gold, with 1SQN and the member’s initials on them OR the 1SQN crest and the member’s initials. I do not have enough crests for all of them but hopefully will get more. Would be great if some of you could do the applique though please.  Requests are as follows:

Request 0 –
Front - Black and gold with either 1 SQN Crest Aussie or applique 1SQN and initials, optional to add silhouette of super hornet which I can email to you. The back is your choice -  need to be posted to Squadron.  In the mail when you can, end of September would be great.  Just tell me you would like to do Request O and how many.

Request OB -
Black and gold with either 1 SQN Crest and initials, or applique 1SQN and initials, optional to add silhouette of super hornet which I can email to you -  can be posted direct overseas but need to be sent by end August please.  Just tell me you would like to do Request OB and how many.

Post By Date

The post by date for all items on this request list is 25 September please.

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.


If there is more than one request on this list that you would be happy to do I suggest that you send me a list of requests and tell me how many you want to be allocated…. ie one of the following please….  There are always a few requests that everyone wants to do (and I can never pick them) so if the first one you ask for is taken then I can allocate another from your list if I have a list.

  
NOTE- please read this bit…. It might make some of the request easier for you…

Australian National Flag - you can buy panels at Spotlight – ask for them if you can’t find them.

Rising Sun, RAAF Crest Navy Crest and other badges – ask me about them, I can often send you some to include if your request needs them.

HMAS Newcastle Crest/1 Squadron Crest can be sent to you as an embroidered panel to be included.

If they want some text and it is too much for you to applique I can get it embroidered and sent to you to be sewn on the quilt or sewn into it.

I can help you with football colours and logos of teams etc. Just ask me. Most of the logos are simple or you can just add team names if you want to … team colours are enough also.

Please think about what the request involves before you take it on. Google, ask questions, email me, make sure you can complete it to your satisfaction before you commit to it if possible please.

Please let me know if you have any other questions.
