Thank you Maggie, You never forget, nor should anyone. It was heart breaking writing it, but also heart warming that so many of us pulled together for a common purpose, also forging new friendships in the process. The threads of these chance encounters that brought us all together will never be broken.

Another triumph Jane! Lovely material and put to excellent use!

Such Kindness

Wonderful but heart breaking, especially regarding the 3 children who lost their father, which you took quilts to recently. Like Abigail many of us make quilts for various charity initiatives and it gives us comfort too as well, just to make them to try to make a difference.

Fabulous explanation & WHAT stunning quilts to show the colour concepts

Another great idea & design Lyn from a really gorgeous range!
