The Valerie Manor quilt is coming along splendidly under the guidance of our very own care team member and project manager Joyce! We now have five completed squares and the ladies have agreed that they will have a knee blanket ready for Christmas, aiming to complete one square a week each.

They were even trying to tell me about knitting today..... They are using a plain stitch so that it looks the same on the front and back – They make the squares by putting one corner to another to see when they can cast off, leaving some wool to ensure they can sew them all together..... And even the gentlemen have been taking part by assisting the ladies by rolling the wool in preparation for the next squares!

We’ll keep you up to date with progress…
