A huge thank you to everyone who knitted a Peggy square for the Premmie Knitting Club

Our squares were turned into blankets by some very kind local volunteers, and now those blankets have been donated to the hospitals and are keeping babies warm already. 👶

How are your Peggy squares going? 🧶

We will be collecting squares at our guild meetings on Saturday 30 May and Saturday 27 June. (1.30pm Waterloo School Hall, Lower Hutt).

If you don’t belong to our quilting guild, but would like to join in our shipments, you’re welcome to drop your squares off and we will post them to Auckland for you with our squares. We will be doing one shipment in early June to join the big effort, and then a final shipment after our 27 June meeting. We will have a big box by the door. Just drop them in.
