PROJECT LINUS UPDATE

After our meeting on 12th February, a remarkable 12 quilts and 6 knitted blankets had been completed and were passed to Lesley for distribution.
It was exciting to see what everyone had done in such a short time but we all agreed that this was probably down to the bad weather – no gardening and not much going out either!!   However we all hope to keep up a supply of items coming in for the future even if they are at a slower rate.

Lesley had brought more fleece and a lot of fabric scraps in for everyone to use, as well as the new ‘kit’ to make a star.  A lot was taken but I still have a supply of some of the fabric pieces so they will be brought to the March meeting.

One or two of the quilts and blankets are shown below.  Not all by Guild members.

AND……. another item, made by Angela McLarnon who took on board the Christmas Challenge of ‘Working in one stitch’ and instead of creating a book cover design, decided to go for a small panel. Looks great Angela.
