Summer is nearly over and next month, Wednesday 27th September to be precise will be White Rose Quilters first meeting of the new programme. There are still a couple of things that need to be finalised and then I will put the new programme on the blogg.
Last week I took all the baby quilts, that the members had made last year, into the Special Care Baby Unit at York Hospital. The staff thought they were beautiful and thanked the group for their generosity and hard work. We have another charity night on the programme for next year, making fiddle finger quilts for people with dementia. More information will be given out later.
Our first meeting in September is a 'show and tell' session by our speaker Beverley Usher who will be telling us about her grandmother. This talented lady produced many quilts in her lifetime and Beverley will be showing us a selection of them. It will be worth your while to join us for the evening if you are interested in patchwork and quilting as it is not often that one comes across such a unique collection of old quilts.
So enjoy the rest of your holidays and see you in September
