Charity Champions

It never fails to amaze me, how the ladies are so generous with their time. One of our latest quests is to help a group from the next town, fill 400 boxes this year. They will have a tiny quilt, bonding squares, a comfort toy, hat, photo frame, book and a little treat for the Mum. These are being passed over to our local maternity unit, to be given to the family of very premature babies.   

On Wednesday we had a "Charity" evening and all got stuck in to sewing, knitting and crocheting some of these items

sooo many and sooo cute!


These hats are tiny!!

 Carol has been mass producing these PJ's some of which have already been sent off the the
Wrap Pyjama Fairies

for a two year old
 So please to hear that Carol has earned her "Fairy Wings" .  She has made a lovely job of them


these gowns are for age 7

 We had another finish from the Bargello workshop, this time from our youngest member (7!)

 she has sen the zip in herself!  Well done Chloe!!


 More tiny makes. This time it is Gillian's bird pin keeper.

 Rosemary has been making celebration bunting

 We have some machine smocked cushions finished
 Ena creating more trouble / dropped a clanger sewing her collage. Too much talking me thinks!


Hazel had made a lovely little bag , turning the top over for security
love the print!

 Jan was on bag making too, both to be gifted.


Lesley had completed a quilt top . This needs wadding and backing added. 
 Barbara has a trio of Collage finishes
sweet cushion

net curtain flowers on this bag!

and on this!
 Maria had finished a Kindle Case for her husband


 So I think that we can say the last couple of workshops have gone down well.

We also had three BIG finishes!

Elaine was so proud relieved to have finished this Batik Beauty


As was Shirley with her Star Sensation


 And the finishing touches - facial features and a flock of seagulls  to her Darling Dolphin quilt

makes all the difference!

 Well done ladies. These are fabulous!
