Hi all
For those
who attended the Annual Thank You Dinner Weekend….
Please
please can you help me out and send me photos from Friday night and also please
could you write your impressions of the weekend. I am really tired and have to
hit the road tomorrow, then again on Tuesday (to return quilt frames) and on
Wednesday and then have a sewing day Thursday at home, one in Penrith on
Saturday and then up to Branxton (Hunter Valley area) Sunday for a Remembrance
Service. I’d love you to share your weekend experience via email so that I can
share it with everyone on the blog. Please send pictures and impressions to me via email.. friendsofAHQ@gmail.com
Please,
please, please read this preamble each week as the info does change. I am
receiving a lot of questions from people who have not read this info so you
would make it easier for me too if you took a few minutes to read it.
Priority Quilts
Requests
number 2-8 are our priority/urgent quilts this week.. They need to be in the
mail no later than end of November.
Please give some though to whether or not you can help out with them.
Post by
Date for all other quilts and laundry bags
The post
by date for ALL other items on this list is 10 December please.
NOTE- any requests on this list would be great for
display at the dinner if you are coming…
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.
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…
The first
column is the theme or preferences requested.
The
second column indicated 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
F= female
M= male
The last
column with the number is a simple registration number for me to use… it is
only relevant for this week only and will change if the request is still on the
list next week. Once you have received the recipient’s details you will need to
use those to refer to the recipient from then on if need be.
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.
If you don’t understand what people are asking for or where to get some
of the bits and pieces then please ask me but the following might also be
helpful.
Australian National Flag - you
can buy panels at Spotlight – ask for them if you can’t find them.
Afghanistan flag – I can send you
one.
Rising Sun, RAAF Crest, Navy
Crest, Coat of Arms, RAEME and other badges – ask me about them, I can often
send you some to include if your request needs them.
If they want some text and it is
too much for you to applique I may be able to get it embroidered and sent to
you to be sewn on the quilt or sewn into it.
Just let me know what words you want, what colour fabric and what colour
thread… keep it simple please. Also
include your address in the email to save me time please.
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.
Cheers
Jan-Maree
