Aussie Hero Quilts Requests 3 February 2020


Hi All

Here is to another week of sewing. Hope you all have a good one. 


For those who don’t read Facebook or the blog here is a snippet of a thank you message that I thought you might enjoy….


"For me and my colleagues here on deployment the quilts we receive from individuals such as yourself are reminders that people back home are thinking of, and care deeply about, us. They can bring comfort in what can occasionally be difficult times and anchor us to happier places such as home. They are treasured items that will accompany us as we continue our journey through life. The effort that you, and everyone else from Aussie Hero Quilts, put in are greatly appreciated."

Priority Requests – numbers 2,3 and 4 are required to be in the mail no later than end of February.  If you can help out with these that would be awesome.

The post by date for ALL OTHER items on this list is 9 March please.

Badges, crests, silhouettes…..

Don’t be intimidated by the requests that want the above, I can probably send the badges and crests to you and can also send you silhouettes that you can print out and applique as is, or enlarge for extra impact.

  
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.


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 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
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.

Middle East themes, Aladdin themes

A number of people have asked for the above. These usually include the country flag (Afghanistan, Iraq, UAE) I can send you the central panels for the Afghanistan and Iraq flags and you just need to add strips of the appropriate plain colours either side.  The UAE flag is easy to piece.

Also suitable for these quilts is a map silhouette of the appropriate country, camels and specifically for the Aladdin themes they mean these sort of silhouettes which you will find if you google “arabian night silhouettes” or “middle east desert silhouettes” or similar. If you are not sure, let me know.

Here are some exammples but if you spend some time looking you might find ones you like better or perhaps, simpler ones. 







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…. i.e. 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.

Please let me know if you have any other questions.

Cheers

Jan-Maree
