Thank you, thank you, De, for the tip about the Kokua Line article regarding the gal who is in need of fabric. I contacted her and will be dropping off my stuff soon!
If you have extra fabric and are interested in donating them, here is an excerpt from the article:
“I am also writing to ask if you would find a small space to let your faithful followers know that we are in need of fabric. We have an amazing angel who is 92 years old and loves to make small quilts … So far she has sewn over 900 small quilts that fit perfectly into the shoeboxes. It would be marvelous if any of your readers would share some of their fabric stash to provide these precious quilts for the children around the world, who could then wrap themselves in aloha from Hawaii.”
Anyone who has fabric to donate can contact Marilyn Gilbert by email at gil.aloha@hawaiiantel.net, phone at 261-6087 or mail at 247 Akiohala St. Kailua, HI 96734.
