Blankets Of Love
Child Bereavement Charity
Quilts.
In 1992 a charity was set up in Australia by two sisters, one a midwife and the other a quilter, the aim of which was to provide grieving parents with a special quilted memento of the child they lost. This lovely idea then spread all around the world and is now followed in almost all neo-natal wards.
The quilts requested are to be 'nappy' sized - approximately twenty-four inches square, extremely soft and extra special. The quilt is then tagged with a label provided by the charity.
If you would like to take part in this worthwhile project do contact The Child Bereavement Charity - Blankets Of Love via Julie Cullingworth on 01494 568917.

Hi, I've just 'followed' because of all of your wonderful photos! I'm really finding the hand turn machine much more sympathetic on smaller projects - I think it would be good with patchwork too.
