Charity update

Since the Champagne Quilters like to take a break for the summer, we wanted to finish up the quilt that was on the frame.

We finished putting the last quilt stitches in this quilt last Wednesday and I bound it the very next day. So now we have two quilts going to The Silent Children's Mission.

Marg has been very busy crocheting little baby hats. Here's 75 hats that she completed in a few short weeks.

And here's a dozen more that I picked up from her today. 
I was told that there was a shipment of baby things going overseas on July 28th so I'm glad that these items were all completed in time.

I'm busy with a quilt on the frame at the moment and that's why I've been a bit quiet. Once it's finished, I'll take a photo and show you.

Go and check out what other Canadians are up to this week at: The Needle and Thread Network.
