Purchase Merchandise


To raise money for our organization, Victoria’s Quilts Canada has developed two kits that we hope will appeal to you and quilters on your gift list.


Maple Leaf Block Kit

Maple Leaf kit

This unique block was designed for us by a breast cancer survivor and all rights were given to us to help raise funds for the work we do.


The kit contains the background fabric, batik fabric for the leaf, and a paper-pieced pattern to complete a 6" block. It is available in a variety of colours from spring greens to fall reds and oranges – all the colours that a maple leaf might be throughout the seasons.


These kits sell for $10.00 (Canadian) each with the proceeds being shared as follows:

• $2.00 is donated to Breast Cancer Action – at the request of the designer

• $8.00 is used by Victoria’s Quilts Canada to provide quilt-making supplies.

Daffodil Fairy Kit and Pattern

Daffodil Fairy kit

The Daffodil Fairy Kit was designed by Catharina Breedyk Law in memory of her mother, Janna Helena Breedyk who passed away following her struggle with breast cancer.


Cathy, who is an award-winning quilter and designer, donated this design and all rights to Victoria’s Quilts Canada to be used to raise funds for our work.


The Daffodil Fairy Pattern and instructions are available for $20.00 with all proceeds being used to pursue our mission.


The Daffodil Fairy Kit includes the pattern, instructions and fabric to complete the wall hanging (batting and backing not included). The fabrics are hand dyed by Joan Ramsay Burn (My Kitchen Garden). The kit sells for $38.00 with all proceeds going to Victoria’s Quilts Canada.

Victoria Doll

Our lovely Victoria Doll was created by two long-standing members of Victoria’s Quilts Canada.


She would make a terrific gift for that special young lady, or special quilting friend.


The Victoria Doll sells for $10.00, with all proceeds going to Victoria’s Quilts Canada, to continue its work.


Merchandise may be purchased at events such as craft and quilt shows where the National Office of Victoria’s Quilts Canada has a display. They are also available in quilt shops in Ottawa and the surrounding area.


To purchase merchandise by mail, please send a money order in Canadian dollars made payable to Victoria’s Quilts Canada and include the shipping charges as listed below.
