Christmas Meeting

Our Christmas meeting began in the usual way with members busy gathering items to be distributed to hospitals and care facilities across the coast and beyond. 

The Quilting Table

Jill from the quilting table explained how many of the quilts for distribution are often made by a team of people. 'Everyone has different talents so some might make the top of the quilt, some bind the quilts and some quilt'. 

A whole lot of love goes into Sunshine Linus quilts every month.

Please note: We are running low on Renal quilts for adults, so if you'd like a project over the Christmas break, the pattern is on the blog. Quilts will be gratefully received at our next meeting on Monday 29 January 2024.
