15th October

Almost everyone was here on the 15th.  So good to see all the people who have been tripping around. 

Since the last report, we have made donations to Dandelion Support Network and We Care Connect.  

Quite a few completed quilts came in today for distribution.

The first two were donated to our group by Raema, a friend from Gosford:

And this one was made by Lyn from Friday Quilters

The table where the knits were was full!  Scarves, beanies, shawls, and a sweet little cardi for a baby.

That's it for today.  Next meeting is in November.

Well here we are again with another bunch of great photos.  It's always so inspiring when I make a trip to Sydney to Stitching Hearts, hope it inspires you too.

We have been approached for donations by two different organisations.  Open Support provides services to women and children escaping domestic and family violence, and people experiencing social isolation and loneliness.  They are based in Darlinghurst, and you can read more here.  We selected a raffle quilt for them.

We were also contacted by the NSW Health Child Protection Counselling Service for some quilts for kids.  Read more about this service here.  After a discussion at our meeting we agreed to make a donation and will contact them for collection.

A delivery was made to the Concord Hospital Palliative Care Unit.

The first quilt was a sweet little child's quilt donated by Cheryl at Hobby Sew:

And there were lots of warm woollens too - scarves and beanies.

Thanks for visiting and see you next time.
