Calder Quilters News (Updated February 2025)

CALDER QUILTERS HELP MACMILLAN NURSES.

The group were given fabric books that had curtain and furnishings samples. After much thought ,this waste was turned into something useful, bags for the MacMillan Nurses Personal Effects Bags appeal. Well done the Calder Quilters .

DECEMBER MEETING GIFT EXCHANGE

Calder Quilters enjoyed  their December Meeting ..mince pies and gift exchanges are always a delight. The Annual Show and Tell of quilts and Christmas decorations was stunning ..it was a true reflection of members skills. The members also brought their quilts that had been made for local charities. These quilts have been delivered to Lighthouse ( aimed at babies and children)and Homeinstead ( the elderly).
The members of the group send Seasons Greetings to who attend the wonderful MJCentre.
