Time has ticked on, and I haven’t done much blogging. Knit and Stitch afternoons have continued indoors and the quilts have steadily rolled in. So far, this year I have had 301 quilts donated! That’s an amazing number of hugs waiting to give snuggles!
Sometimes I get specific requests, which I try to fulfil if possible. Rosemary from the Diana Service asked if I had a larger quilt for a tall 14 year old, plus two “blue quilts for Leicester FC fans’. The larger quilt was easy and I found two very blue quilts. I appliqued a nice fox’s face on the blue quilts for an extra touch. Rosemary thought they were fine!
This week Paula and I finally made it to meet up with Leicester Stitchers to talk about Linus and receive two fabulous quilts made by their members over lockdown. As you can imagine, we kept making dates then rearranging them, as the COVID-19 situation progressed! I was glad to meet them as they were very friendly and gave me a generous donation for Linus as well as the quilts!
