Knit and Stitch meeting July

Apparently, when it became possible to meet up outside (socially distanced of course) a few of the knitter members of Knit and Stitch took their chairs onto Lutterworth Rec and had a meet up.  I don't think any knitting actually took place, but a good time was had by all!  At the end of June I notified some of the quilting group members that the meeting was going ahead in July, so on July 2nd eight of us congregated round a seat at the top end of the rec, with umbrellas and raincoats.  It was actually raining lightly, but it soon stopped. 

Some people had brought quilts for me, Sue brought one she called Pigs and teddies - always a good combination!- and Martha brought seven quilts, including the one with kites on, which is her own design.

At one point, we were alerted to the presence of a helicopter in the sky above us.  Was it the police checking whether we were social distancing and whether we exceeded the numbers for an outside gathering (we did!) but realised it was the air ambulance.  Bad news for someone.  Martha also brought goodies to share (individually wrapped little packs of biscuits, yummy) and we have decided to meet up again in August, if the hall isn't open.  So, on August 6th come along to Lutterworth Rec, bring your own chair or cushion and some show and tell.  There is a free car park on Coventry Road, and if you walk along the right hand side of the grass towards the other end, you'll find us.  Looking forward to seeing you.
