Bomb Girls National Quilt Program

Please help us build our National Quilt to honour and commemorate the women of the Second World War who supported the fight for peace here on the home front, by working in wartime factories across Canada.
As a contributor to our quilt, you are welcome to prepare a patch to remember or honour a family member who served in this capacity or simply to say thank you to these brave women. We ask only that you follow a few simple specifications so that we can put this quilt together in a meaningful and aesthetically pleasing manner for eventual display in our museum.

  • Size 6" working area on a 7" patch (allowing for seams) Template attached
  • Most add-on materials may be used (lace, ribbon, swatch of a favourite piece of clothing, buttons etc.) Please REFRAIN from using metallics that could damage quilting machines
