Hello, Here we are again with
another week's Request List - I'll be ready and waiting to receive your emails.
What will you select to create? So many lovely themes to think about the
design potential .....I am always so amazed at the creativity and outcomes. Likewise
the traditional block quilts have such appeal and look terrific with an appliqué
or embroidered crest. My sewing machine
is in for service this week so I’ll just have to enjoy virtual stitching J
A couple of house-keeping reminders
......to please double check any text that you might be appliquéing or
embroidering – please query with me an unusual name that you might think is a
typo. Likewise PMKeyS have 7 digits but some service numbers have
fewer – don’t hesitate to ask me to check for you.
Cheers for now and have a super sewing week,
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.
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

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.
