Request List Posts

Welcome to the Aussie Hero Quilts (and Laundry Bags) Request List posts.

This page is dedicated to all the Request List that have been posted by Aussie Hero Quilts. Our volunteers use these posts to nominate for what quilts and luandry bags they wish to make for our wonderful veterans.
