This project is sponsored by the NE Oklahoma Quilts of Valor group that meets at SewFlakes (formerly Cyrilla's Artful Needle) in Broken Arrow the 2nd Saturday of every month.
Quilts of Valor Autograph Block Drive
Thank you for participating in this Quilts of Valor Project. We are attempting to
help comfort all the war wounded from the War on Terror. Your Autographed
Block will be joined with other blocks that are sent to us to make a Quilt of
Valor for a wounded serviceperson. We welcome blocks from all states!
After making and autographing your block, please put it in a Ziploc bag or plastic
and mail it in a #10 envelope with a 1st class stamp to:
Quilts of Valor Block Project
Persimmon Quilts
15031 S. 4150 Rd
Claremore, OK 74017
**** I took an envelope w/block to my post office, and they said it would
go for one 1st class stamp, but if in doubt, please verify at your post office.
Apparently it isn't the weight of the one block, but how thick the envelope is that
increases the postage, so be sure to squeeze all the air out of the baggie! ****
Fabrics:
Please use pre-washed fabrics that mostly read solid Red and Blue,
unless instructed to use a patriotic print or other color. Please – no florals or obvious
fabrics that are not patriotic.
The white autograph fabric may be White-on-White, White Muslin (recommended
for easier autographing), or a very small red or blue print on white.
A new Autograph Block will be posted every few weeks, but no set schedule. Please check back for new additions. Previous blocks will remain on this page. Feel free to do as many different ones as you wish, we will always find a way to set them in tops.
