QFOs (Quilts For Others) - the Production Line Our ‘Production Line’ has been an on-going effort which produces completed quilts to send off for local needs and the 'Very Snuggly Quilts' program Unwanted blocks or quilt tops or fabric or batting?
Donate them and we'll
complete the quilts and send them on to a good cause - it's these donations
that keep our 'Production Line' moving along! Donations? Queries? Have you made a quilt top but need batting and/or backing fabric to complete your QFO? See Tineke at a meeting |
Up to March 2020,

the Monash Medical Centre. Each child takes their quilt home What size? There is wriggle room, but this is a guide for square or rectangular quilts Baby: 30" square 30" x 36" Toddler: 36" square 36" x 42" Kids / most popular size: 40" square 40" x 48" Teens / biggest 50" square 50" x 60"
