Stitching for Charity! (brainstorming)

[ezsebeth]

I just took my name of the list, because I realised there is no way I'm going to be able to pay the 3 dollars for the quilt ='(
I'm sorry guys..

Blackheart-- those are both amazing!! I have had to hold off on finishing mine because the craft store hasn't had the grass green color for 3 weeks now . I need to design my Earthbound square soon too...

I made the pattern for my Bowser/Mario square this morning! Looking forward to starting it but really not looking forward to stitching all that black. It really is a shame we can't use black aida!

Ha, ditto! I feel like my Donkey Kong square is a never ending sea of black.

How much cash would you like us to send with our squares? I'm rather ignorant on the cost of quilting supplies.

This is completely up to everyone that sends them to me. I wasn't asking for money, other people were suggesting it. To give you an idea, it is going to cost me $40-$60 per lap quilt. I need to purchase the fabric for the backing, borders, and binding as well as the batting (the stuffing in the quilt) and thread. If I make a pillow it will cost me about $20-$25 per pillow. So if I make 4 quilts, it would cost me $160-$240. This is why some people were suggesting sending a few dollars. My cost will be a little more then others.

I'm sorry guys..

Even though the donation for the quilt is optional in my eyes don't forget you also need to pay to ship your pieces. Especially overseas, shipping may cost $10-$30. So if you couldn't afford a few dollars you definitely couldn't afford the cost of your materials and to ship it.

Logistical question:

Being in the UK I have to change currency, and changing anything less than £50 is really a bit pointless, so do you have a paypal? It'll be easier that way for us "overseas" guys.
Not that I've even started my square yet.

Yes, if you want to send a few dollars to help with quilt costs, I do have paypal. It is my email address. tnitnetny@yahoo.com
