Busy Linus day!

 Today has been a busy and enjoyable one.  Firstly, Amanda came over from Jay Fostering in Leicester to collect quilts for their looked after children.  She said that the children love the quilts, and all the staff look forward to a new delivery!  Paula and I were hoping she had time for a cuppa, but unfortunately there was an emergency she had to sort out, so we just had a cuppa the two of us! 

Then this afternoon we went over to Burbage to the Hinckley U3A Craft Group to do some sewing.  We do a session with the members of this group every year, and really look forward to it. 


Here they are all hard at work, getting to grips with Heat and Bond. 


I took my iron, but the group has an iron of their own, so it meant the work went faster. 



 Here are the finished blocks.  Don’t they look great?  One lady said it wasn’t at all what she had thought it would be.  ‘What did you think it was going to be?’ I asked.  ‘Well, quilting, sewing, just boring.  But this has been fun.’  That must be praise indeed!
