So lovely today to hear from Sarah about a grateful recipient of a quilt and teddy. Not that we do it for the thanks, but it's lovely to occasionally get feedback. . Thanks, ladies of our group.

Our group were thrilled to receive this certificate from Project Linus UK this week. All these quilts have been donated since January this year.
Well done to everyone in our group. You are all superstars.

Thanks to our lovely ladies, our September meeting collected 65 quilts, and loads of knitting- blankets, cardigans, hats and soft toys. Thanks to everyone who responded to the urgent request from Calums Cabin .

We also were very grateful to receive donations of material, fleece and money,, from the collection at Nancy Crawford's funeral. Nancy was a long standing member of the Hamilton group, and was a beautiful sewer, who took tremendous pride in her work. She will be greatly missed, and our thoughts are with her family. We are so thankful for the support from the Crawford families. 🩷

Our latest fantastic collection of quilts. Thanks so much to our lovely sewers. This collection of 90 quilts will soon be on their way to new homes. They are so appreciated by their recipients.

If you'd like to learn how to make these quilts, please get in touch.

Also if you know of vulnerable children needing a "hug they can keep", contact us please.

Please get in touch with us if you want to join our group and make "hugs you can keep".for vulnerable children aged 0-18.

Here at PLUK we love to get your feedback on the quilt you/your loved one receives.
This is a fabulous narrative on how this one was received at the time and how it continues to provide a ‘hug you can keep’

“I wanted to send you a photo of Joseph with his favourite quilt.

He was given it at Great Ormond Street Hospital after he had open heart surgery at 9 days old.

He (and I) have loved it ever since. It was a genuinely meaningful and uplifting part of our multiple-month hospital stay, and we bring it with us when Joseph has other hospital stays.

Thank you for what you do - it’s kind and beautiful and brings much needed love and texture (everything else in hospital is so neutral!) to a bleak time.”

Another wonderful collection of quilts received from our quilters, at the end of July. Thanks to everyone who has made these lovely quilts.

All ready to go to new homes, and bring a smile to some child's face.

If you'd like to learn how to make a quilt -"a hug you can keep"- for vulnerable children 0-18, please get in touch.

Or if you have spare cotton material, or sewing essentials, please pass it on to us, to distribute to our wonderful sewers. Thanks.
