Good morning all
The Aussie Hero Quilts Anniversary Weekend has been
postponed to 7,8,9 October. Don’t forget
to change your accommodation bookings if need be.
HMAS Adelaide continues to support on OpTongaAssist. After successfully delivering 88 tonnes of
supplies to Tonga, the crew have responded to a request from the Government of
Tonga for additional air and sea reconnaissance.
Capability assigned to HMAS Adelaide III includes three Army CH-47F Chinook helicopters from which operate from the flight deck.
There are still plenty of HMAS Adelaide requests on our list
if you would like to do one.
**********************************************************************************
Now on to our requests.
Once you’ve made your selection of what you’d like to try,
do please EMAIL friendsofAHQ@gmail.com and Catherine or I will be pleased to assist you with your
selection. Hope to hear from you soon.
Thank you!
When selecting a request, remember, you do not have to
include everything they have asked for.
Footy quilts do not need to have the logo or even the team’s name. Using
the team colours is all that is required. Simple is perfectly acceptable. A number of these requests have given you
favourite colours as well as footy teams or other hobbies and interests. It is fine to make a quilt using their
favourite colours and include only one of their interests. It is fine to keep it simple.
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.
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.
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 bold below.
CPL Wanda Quilt 8765432
TG 3456
AFPO XX
ADF
Sydney NSW 2890
Also, please use the Aussie Heroes PO 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.
Aussie Hero Quilts (and Laundry Bags)
PO Box 248, Cherrybrook, NSW 2126
Don’t forget to take a photo of your completed quilt or
laundry bag to 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.
I personally love viewing the photos of those projects dispatched – so
inspiring.
If you are using a AHQ supplied prepaid satchel please
kindly use the AHQ address for the return address– also for your own packaging
– if a parcel is Returned to Sender it is likely we can expedite its journey to
the recipient from Sydney.
Please also please hold on to the Tracking number (the pink
sticker that you should remove before posting – 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.
POST BY DATE
The post by date for all Requests on this list is 14 March
2022 please, or earlier if you can
manage this. 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. 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.
