Registered Charity We are pleased to tell you that LoveQuiltsUK is now a Registered Charity! Many don't realise that a charity can't be registered until their turnover is over £5000 a year. We have now reached that point! While being registered means more paperwork, it does mean that we can apply for grants etc more easily. Well done to everyone involved in LoveQuiltsUK that has brought us to this point :) Fundraising News Our stitcher and quilter Tracey Phillips has completed a half-marathon and raised £500 for us! Thank you so much Tracey, a wonderful effort! Sheena and Jenny ran a brilliant coffee morning for us at their workplace, well done ladies!

Thank you so much to everyone who contributed towards these quilts! :) Kat's working hours and Square Uploads Kat has recently started a job with long hours, so we ask stitchers to be patient in waiting for their squares to appear on the website - they may be a couple of days later than usual. Please don't email Kat to ask if your square has arrived - if it's not on the website, she hasn't had a chance to open packages that have arrived yet. Also, please be aware that unwashed squares will take a few days longer again to appear as they are going in the wash before being uploaded in order to streamline things for Kat. We thank you for your understanding! :) Square News We have received 111 squares since our last update! Many thanks to all those who stitched them!
