I got the materials, and several friends donated batting etc. and chipped in for the fabric.
Well iI sent an email asking my fellow quilters to join us in a sewing bee day. I got wonderful responses, except one woman ranted about how she and several others were talking and they did not want her money spent on charities, people should not have four kids unless they can support them. Really hateful stuff.
I was was so tempted to share her email, but held myself back. I haven't responded to her yet. Talk about mean and ignorant.
