The
day was open to all members to create heart cushions and items to sell in the
Lincolnshire show.
We
made stuff heart shaped cushions – to be donated to the hospital to give to
women who have had a mastectomy; the idea is that they tuck it under their arm
to stop their arm rasping the surgical cut. I only made one heart cushion, but
it was very soft and nice. Others had made many more and a couple finished them
off that day.
During
the day I managed to make five pea pod brooches with fleece and felt to sell at
the Lincolnshire show. Judith our secretary had produced huge numbers of pieces
for sale.
We
were given lunch to keep us going – a lovely vegetable soup (made by Lyn’s
husband John) and a range of amazing cheeses.
