I finished a few more squares for Friends To Seniors this week. Pics are lousy…they really are all stitched on white aida!! LOL
I am going to give the quilt squares a break for a few days and concentrate on some of my own stitching.

Finished a few squares this week for Friends To Seniors last week – they will all be used on quilts for the Universal Beneficent Society – an organisation which helps some of the poorest elderly people in the UK. Our association with the UBS has meant that we are able to reach out to many [...]
