To do this, we are creating a lasting testimony of people living in Aspley Guise, or connected to the village or church in the year 2020 by making a beautiful community memory quilt from canvas ‘bricks’ all embroidered with local family names. This will be displayed in St Botolph’s Church. If you want to be included please buy a ‘brick’.

 

‘Bricks’ cost £10 for a blank - you create and make your own design.
For £25, the Church Craft Group will stitch your ‘brick’ with your family name.

Our aim is to collect all the ‘bricks’ by June 2020 and to complete the hanging by Christmas.

 

To purchase a brick (with instructions) please contact:

Gay Marks  phone 01908 582801 email: marks.wview@btinternet.com
Liz Armitage phone 01908 584473 email: liz@armitage.uk.com

 

If you want to join in the project and help to make the quilt, the St Botolph’s Craft Group meets every Tuesday afternoon. Please ask Brenda, Gay or Liz for details.

 

All proceeds will go towards the upkeep of the fabric of the Church.  Check back on this page regularly for updates.
