Expenses

Don't get me wrong, I love quilting.   I love giving quilts to charity.   But sometimes it gets expensive.   The biggest expenses are backing and batting.    Since I mostly do scrap quilts, I don't need a lot of fabric and can use bits and pieces in more than one quilt.   But each quilt requires a backing and batting.   Baby quilts only need a yard.   But any bigger and it takes more supplies.   And muslin for backing is not cheap once you get back the 36 inch size.   Don't even get me started on batting.  

So, if you could help out on the supplies, you can give any amount through the tip jar on the right below the charities.   These donations are not tax deductible.   If you want to send me fabric, batting or backing, leave a message in the comments.  

As always, don't forget to make a donation to the charities on the right.   These donations are tax deductible, go right to the charities and are not used for making the quilt blocks or quilts.  

Don't forget Giving Tuesday, one week from today.   Wait until you see the special quilt block for any donations made that day.    Join us for an online all day (court hearings permitting for me) quilting bee.   Do not have to quilt to join in.
