COVERING SC KIDS CHALLENGE
GUIDELINES
We are challenging every member of QSC to make at least
one Covering SC Kids quilt. We will be making quilts for
the Children's Miracle Network Hospitals in Greenville,
Florence, Charleston, and Columbia.
1. Quilt size MUST be 36” by 48”. The size is set
by the hospitals - please do not deviate from this.
2. Challenge quilts may be turned in at Spring
Meeting 2012 in Sumter or at Pieceable Retreat 2012 at
White Oak. If you cannot attend either of those
meetings please send your challenge quilt with a fellow
quilter who is attending or contact your district
representative or a board member.
3. If you wish to put a
label on your quilt denoting
who made it and where you are from, every effort will be
made to place your quilt in a hospital in your area.
87 Quilts were turned in at
the Spring Meeting! |
