This is really moving and I love the quilts shown. It is a great thought provoking feature Sylvia on a subject we should never forget.

Thank you again, Sylvia, for giving me this wonderful opportunity to connect with quilters in the UK (and beyond!) on your beautiful, user-friendly site. I’m honored and delighted.

I’ll certainly be talking about this to our quilting group on Wednesday. I’m sure that some of them will want to be involved. Thought provoking project.

Duck, duck, duck, duck….duck?

I love the wee ducks, I never knew that such a wonderful project existed and I’m off now to have a further read.. unfortunately the blood transfusion service no longer visits the western isles as it became not viable with so many ferry cancellations so financially and loss of donated blood in delay getting it back to Inverness

What a lovely idea.They are sooo cute…I’m off to take a quack peek

Oh my!!!
What a wonderful blog, thank you so very much in blogging about this and bringing to my attention and hopefully to all the others who happen on it. I can assure you I shall be making so many aware of this LYD awareness campaign, an illness that we all dread. For those of us who on the side lines feel helpless in having to sit and watch as loved ones take on a frightening and painful journey, that us fortunate in having good health can only imagine, a little something to feel like we are doing ‘our bit’.
I cannot wait now until Monday to take patterns to all the ladies in my knitting group and spread the word on Tuesday, Wednesday and Thursday to the quilting groups I hold and attend.
Believe me I shall even be telling my friends in the pub!
So very close to my heart.
LYD will (with considerable re-telling, knitting and sewing) be in abundance in these Somerset towns.
Off to spread the word.

These are great Sylvia, my next make I think – might even use freezer paper as a template and try making the tag on calico!
