Quilt specifications

A Victoria’s Quilt

… is made with:

• with 100% washable cotton for the quilt top, a thin layer of cotton batting, and 100% cotton flannelette backing
• batting that is either 100% cotton OR a blend of 80% natural fibre (cotton, silk, bamboo) with no more than 20% synthetic (polyester)
• good quality cotton or polyester thread
• a Victoria’s Quilts Canada label sewn to the backing

… is made in three different sizes:

• adult: approximately 50” x 70”
• youth: approximately 40” x 60”
• child: approximately 30” x 50”

… can be:

• any colour, pattern, or solid that is suitable for making
  quilts for adults (note: although we also make quilts for children and youth, our greatest need is for fabric to make adult quilts)
• hand or machine quilted
• tied with yarn, ribbon, or embroidery floss ribbon

… must be:

• free of buttons, charms, or detachable embellishments
  (this is particularly important as it may be used near medical equipment)
• durable, as it will be washed many times.
