Two wonderful Cwtch quilts, made by two different quilters - using the same sweet scottie dog block - big thanks to Wendy and Jacky ! Anyone would think that Wendy and Jacky are good friends !

1st photo is Wendy’s and the second is Jacky’s.

More photos of these two quilts to follow …..

Many apologies to Lou, whose name I managed to leave off the “list” yesterday of people who had made quilts for the latest delivery. She contributed 3 splendid quilts, and here are some photos of just one of them. It’s hard to say which is the front and which is the back ! She’s also got a brilliant label, which includes care instructions. Thanks, Lou, and to all the other makers 😀👍

Earlier this week, we dropped off the latest Cwtch quilt delivery to the Children’s Hospital. My usual contact, Tina, had to take her son for an appointment, so we were greeted by two of her colleagues, and sadly I didn’t get their names. But they were delighted ! A big thank you to all the quilters who contributed this time - Jacky, Anna, Terri, Ann and Wendy. I even managed an incubator quilt myself !

IT’S NOT TOO LATE !!!

Cwtch delivery this week. If you have anything ready to go to the hospital, please could you get it to me today, ideally, or tomorrow at a pinch.
Terri dropped off a couple of gorgeous quilts a few days ago - here she is with one of them. I’m also accumulating a whole wiggle of wiggly bags - plus generous offerings of Beads of Courage bags, knitted bonding hearts ….. incubator and other quilts !! Do get in touch if you have something but can’t deliver it to me. Many thanks - diolch !!

Another lovely Cwtch quilt from Angela

Cwtch Quilt delivery coming up !!
If you have any quilts nearly ready, now’s the time to finish them. If you could get them to me in the next couple of weeks, that would be great👍 Here are a couple of photos of one of Jacky’s latest ones to inspire you!
