If I was new to the craft and read your post it would encourage me to ‘open the window’ to learn more. Really ‘opened my eyes’. Thanks you Denise

Well said, Denise. Mental ill-health in its many forms rarely just disappears – but a kindred soul (especially one who shares our love of fabric!) can help a sufferer feel a little less alone.

I love that you are rewarded and both rewarding with your craft I agree people are put off by the cost of crafting and unless they are enlightened by others keep up the good work. Jan

Wow..wow!

Thanks Rebecca for the vote of confidence! We love your posts.

AAAhhhh! That was lovely. So true too, new friends made and the help is wonderful. Love these groups.

Margery, I live in Spain. I would love to make and donate quilts, but can’t find any info of a Spanish ‘Linus’ type project. Do you know if there is a sister group to you here? Thanks in advance Sue x

I make for Linus down here in Swindon and they go off to the Bath and Wells coordinator. Most of the time I scale down quilts I have seen when I don’t need another full size quilt for personal use…Sometimes there are “because I can” quilts and I’m also creative with my scraps and selvedges. The poem is lovely.

This is really interesting to read, as I ordered a kind of “bondaweb” and got something very like this. At the time I did not know how to use it, so this is very helpful indeed!
