Our Contribution to a local charity


One of my lovely stitchers has set up a charity in the memory of her young son. Harry was 5 when he tragically died 2 1/2 years ago after suffering an Asthma attack with complications.

Last month his family set up  a website to support other families who find themselves in this awful situation to give them support they need all in one place:



We decided to contribute in a small way to their fundraising at Christmas and make something to bid for or raffle. Everyone in the group made leaves for this festive wreath and I made one of my robin's.
I then hastily stitched it together ready for their stall at a local lantern festival.

This shows the work in progress and Harry's Odette holding the final wreath.
Lovely work from all involved xx
