Polina with her quilt

I still had quilts measured, priced and labelled from the Hospital Fair but I repriced them lower to sell and share, far below cost. Measurements are the fiddliest part so at least that was done I sold four plus the two runners and two mug rugs. 

I also met two Ukrainian grandparents. She was very interested in textiles and as I learnt her granddaughter is too. I explained I had given quilts to some other Ukrainian children uprooted from their homes and persuaded them to choose one for their granddaughter.

And quilt now on the bed

They returned later with gifts of homemade preserves (the blackberry jam is going down fast ) and best of all sent a picture of their beautiful granddaughter with her quilt. I am so pleased this piece made with Malalaysian batiks has found a good home. It is sandwiched with Hobbs Tuscany poly wadding which is so light and cuddly.
