Request List 24 May 2021



Good morning all, New and old requests on this week’s list –  if there’s a theme that suits your stash or your creative skills can visualise a design I’d love to hear from you.     Our quilts and laundry bags we dispatch are sewn with appreciation to others for their dedication and service to our beautiful country. It is reassuring to know that there are special people, willing to work to help make this world a better place in uncertain times. This work and the sacrifice made is valued by many and we send a huge “thank you”.  Is there someone you’d like to say “thanks” to by way of a laundry bag or quilt this week?  

Cheers and happy stitching, keep warm :)

Clarissa
