I was thinking , you know how everyone keeps that one pair of fat pants to get a pic taken with and when it is all said and done we dont really want to keep them but dont want to see them go . What if each person takes a 4x4 square of something and I start a quilt and as time goes by we can donate the finished quilts to a shelter for women and start a new one. This way we can give a little of each of us to someone in need. I dont mind doing the sewing it clams me down rather nicely sometimes. It was just a thought vicki

Great idea Vicki. If you have everyone cut their squares 4 1/2 X 4 1/2 your quilt squares will be 4X4 if you sew 1/4 in seams. Should be cute. Let me know when you want one. Alice

if everyone brungs some to each clothing exchange that will give me time to sew them all together .. and 4 1/2 x 4 1/2 is perfect. it would take no time to make quilts vicki

Thats a great idea for those items that have a hole or a stain and cant be passed on at the clothing exchange. I know I have a few of those items... that I wouldnt want to give becouse I have spilt my lunch on them, ect. Would u want these items too for your quilts.... However, I know for me I hope ppl dont start cutting up their good clothes cause I know the clothing exchanges has been a godsend to me and others. I hope the quits go over well and Im sure there are alot of women that could really use them. Is there are type of fabric u prefer...which would work best...light, med or heavy fabrics????

Great idea- what about the leftover clothing that no body takes? There is always a bunch left, I know we usually donate it, but maybe you could take some too! Just a thought! Hugz Dawn
