June updates.

The committee recently met (on Zoom!) to discuss future meetings and plans.  Nothing is certain as yet, except more uncertainty to come!  When will the hall reopen?  When will gatherings be allowed? Will speakers come? Will members come?  What shall we do?  Taking everything into consideration, we have decided to cancel the July, August and September meetings, and the Katharine Guerrier and Moira Neal workshops.  We know this will cause disappointment, but not come as a surprise.  Some people have paid fees, and these will be refunded at the next meeting.  If anyone needs their money sooner, please contact Ann Aspley and she will arrange it.  We are hoping that our October and November meetings might take place in some form, but will make these decisions nearer the time.

In happier news, Ann has sent a cheque for £250 to East Midlands Dog Rescue in Huncote, which was our recent charity.  Well done to June for running such a popular raffle! 

We are looking forward to seeing your ‘Things to be grateful for’ quiltlets.  These will provide an interesting set of glimpses into lockdown. Here is a sneak preview of mine.


And here is the back.  As you can see, I just bagged it and then topstitched around the edge.


Meanwhile, keep alert, and keep sewing!
