Quilt News
We hope that all our supporters have had a pleasant Christmas!

Before we get to the end of the year, just a look back on what LQ was doing in the autumn period. We will be doing our full review of the year as usual on 31st December!

It's been a disruptive time with a lot of postal strikes in the UK which have delayed both squares and quilts arriving at their destination.

Gaynor has got Covid at the moment, and waiting for a negative test!

Let's have a look at what we've been doing since October:


24 quilts have been delivered since our last update:

EasyFundraising
Easyfundraising.co.uk has been so important to us financially for several years now. Like AmazonSmile, it's totally free, it returns a few pence to LQUK on each purchase, but is valid for many companies, not just Amazon. Please see here for details: Easyfundraising.org.uk

Thanks also to those who entered the recent Easyfundraising "Advent Calendar" event during December which entered us for a prize draw each time.

    Thank you so much to everyone involved in making these quilts! A magnificent effort in just a few short months.


    Fundraising News
    Jan S has been very busy and has raised over £200 since our last update! Thank you very much Jan for all your efforts. Here is just a selection of the items Jan has made for sale!










    Heather and Leanda have also been busy making lap quilts and a weighted blanket for sale and have raised at least £75 between them.

    One of Heather's lap quilts contained a square donated by Jeanne which was stitched by her husband Frank, who sadly passed away a couple of years ago. Here is the quilt that was made:



    Sandra has also been busy making cushions and lap quilts. Here is a picture of some of her cushions:



    Thank you so much to all you ladies for your efforts in making these items for sale and raising funds for us!



    London - Edinburgh - London Audax
    Cary-Ann D'Arcy has raised an amazing £1090 for us completing an Audax. For those unfamiliar with the term, an audax is a long-distance cycle ride within a time limit, in this case, London to Edinburgh and back to London in one week. What an amazing feat of physical endurance, particularly as Cary completed this during a period of very hot weather and she also had bike problems on the return leg. Here are some pictures of Cary en-route:


    Cary at Barnard Castle



    Bike problems!



    Cary en route



    Cary at the finish!


    Thank you so much for your magnificent effort, Cary, and we hope you're feeling a little less saddle-sore soon!


    Birthday fundraisers
    Lindsay Latham and Gillian Keniston-Goble have both run birthday fundraisers for us on Facebook, thank you very much, ladies!


    Spin To Win
    Many thanks to everyone who entered Easyfundraising's Spin To Win on our behalf - at least one person hit the daily £5 jackpot and it all adds up!


    Donations
    Thank you to everyone who has sent in donations over this period, it is really appreciated.
