Submit a Quilt Square
Donate Life Northwest invites community members including donor families, living donors, recipients, and transplant candidates, to participate in creating our next Threads of Life quilt.
The next quilt will be unveiled in April 2028. To submit a square for this next quilt, it must be received by December 31, 2027.
Individual Submissions
Click here to view instructions for creating a square and the registration form: Design Criteria & Registration Form (English) (Spanish/Español). Squares for the 2028 quilt are due on December 31, 2027. To get started, check out our guide on how to make a quilt square.
A scrapbook accompanies each quilt. Quilt square submitters must include a registration form with their square submission. This registration form ensures that we capture all the information needed to make the scrapbook, including:
- Brief description of the square
- Name of the quilt square designer
- Full name of person(s) the square honors/remembers
- Information about the donation/transplant, if applicable
- 250-word or less personal history of the individual being honored or remembered
- Photograph of the honoree (optional but encouraged).
Workshops
Workshops are coordinated statewide and will begin in 2027. These workshops are an opportunity for those with no quilting experience to gain guidance in creating their square. As workshops are scheduled, they will be added to this page.
You can view our Volunteer Events & Opportunities Calendar for quilt workshops.
