First Day of Winter

Yesterday, our last meeting, was officially the first day of winter here in the southern hemisphere.  I have been slightly envious of all those lovely Spring photos I have seen on social media.  Not a problem though, as our winter weather is usually lovely - cool sunny days, but cold nights.

Our members collected a large bundle of children's clothing which were delivered to We Care Connect.  We were told that May has broken all records with the organisation providing Winter essentials to 292 families with over 600 children.

We also delivered a bundle of quilts to the Dandelion Network, who mentioned us on Instagram.

Some lovely donated quilts were amongst those brought in this week.

The first 2 quilts were donations from Susan U in Queensland:

And this one was made by Sue E from Friday Quilters.

The winter woolies brought in today will be a bonus to those of our recipients who are doing it tough. There were beanies, shawls and a pair of baby booties.

And here are the quilts made by our members.

That's it for now.  Thanks for stopping by and supporting our group.  See you next time.
