Quilts for Siblings and a Competition

Siblings Together is a charity dedicated to bringing together siblings split apart by the UK care system.  In the holidays they organise camps for brothers and sisters to come together and maintain some sibling family contact. In support of the cause Lynne over at Lily's Quilts is seeking donations of quilts so that each child can take home a quilt from camp this summer.  

If you are interested to contributing to Quilts for Siblings either by making a quilt or blocks
be sure to visit Lilys Quilts here for more information.

I am supporting the cause too but in a slightly different way. 

I've added some bundles of lower-priced cottons to the Quiltmehappy Shop

and I'm running a competition to have your siblings quilt long arm quilted!

Interested ? Read on....

 Mystery Bundles of Children's Fabric 

You can find a mystery pack of 4FQ's of suitable children's fabric for just £7.

The bundles are coordinated and you can choose
young boy, young girl, teen boy, teen girl (or you can be surprised).

and 

You will also find some value-priced bundles of 

wide-width cotton suitable for quilt backs.

These 2m bundles of 150cm wide (60") cottons in a variety of

children's designs are just £10 per 2m bundle! 

So hopefully that will help to keep quilt making costs down a little. 

But if you don't fancy either of these options you can always use

Promo Code SIBLINGS to get 15% off your order total at checkout.

Code is good until the end of April
