We are so excited to launch our latest initiative and have had a great response so far, so thank you to everyone who wants to “ DO YOUR BLOCK “
We have now opened for nominations over on our Facebook Page! So please have a good think, and nominate someone
that could do with a lift or a charity that needs a boost by commenting and linking your 'cause' on our nominations post
We will use random.org to pick the worthy recipients as I am sure it will be a difficult task to choose, once nominations close @ 8.30pm AEST this Sunday night .
Now the fun really starts! We’re hoping to co-ordinate at least 3 quilts - a boys, girls and an adults quilt (male or female) in our first call out.

The blocks will be a simple square in a square, we have created a downloadable tutorial { click here } with pictures perfect for any sewing level.
Be creative and adventurous… we can’t wait to see what you all come up with! You can make as many as you would like!
You can post your finished block/s to:
The Oz Material Girls
PO Box 1180
MITTAGONG NSW 2575
We are also still looking for some helpers that are willing and able to join and bind the blocks into quilts on behalf of us all.
The Oz Material Girls will provide the wadding, backing fabric and binding, please email ozmaterialgirls@gmail.com if you would like to help with this
We are hoping this will be an ongoing initiative and that can only happen with your support!
Please share with your friends and likers so we can get as many people involved and create lots of gorgeous quilts to brighten someone’s day
