On Saturday 28th July
our Annual Charity Day was held at St Andrews to great success. We had a large turnout of members, family and
friends who enjoyed making a felt biscornu or brought their own sewing, which
was lovely to see. We saw Japanese
Folded Patchwork, Miniature Log Cabin Blocks and a Jubilee Tapestry Cushion
which made the day very diverse and interesting, especially to the younger
generation who also came on the day.
Many people should be thanked for
helping on the day: Maureen Robinson who was our tea/coffee lady and also
supplied a selection of lovely sandwiches, Marie Warburton from the Merseyside
branch of the Guild who provided our raffle prizes (which included a
cross-stitched biscornu which was stunning and won by me!), to everyone for
bringing many sales items, cakes, pastries and scones which created a wonderful
lunch enjoyed by all.
The donations flooded in with a
total (increased at 10pm that night!) to £500 – an amazing amount!
Our charity this year will make
really good use of our efforts to provide outings, books, arts and crafts to
patients in Grianagh Court, which is a Mental Health Service facility who
receive little funding.
Well done everyone and my grateful
thanks for all your support.
