Weekly Dispatches 17 May

Good heavens! 
Do you realise we are half way to having sent another 1000 quilts this year already and it is only May!

The tally so far-

17  quilts this week and 51 laundry bags.

447 quilts and 983 laundry bags for 2013

1464 quilts and 2357 laundry bags in total.

Just a little reminder before we get underway with the Dispatches.  

The next sewing day is on this Sunday in Penrith.  We are going to make a simple quilt top for HMAS Newcastle, maybe two depending on the turnout.  Details are as follows.
