Kathreen from WhipUp.net has announced a new project, a community quilt to raise funds and awareness for Cystic Fibrosis.

To help the project all you need to do is make a very simple four patch block. From WhipUp.net:

Its a simple block, comprised of 4xfive inch charm squares – one of which you will embroider/applique a rose design onto, the other three squares can be comprised of vintage/found/floral bits of lovely fabric – you can make one block or more and send to me to be made up into the 65 roses quilt.

See! super simple!

The finished quilt will be auctioned off at the Cystic Fibrosis Australia annual gala auction event in Canberra in September 2010. Deadline for the blocks is the 7th of January.

Go to WhipUp.net to find out more about the 65 Roses Quilt and download all of the information about how you can get involved on a PDF.
