Wow, what a day - number three blanket is finished. You are probably wondering what these huge blankets are for. All will be revealed in a few days. Our deadline is Tuesday.
I think we may have had nine different nationalities working together today. We arrived early at the Noble Park Primary School community room to find our volunteers already gathering.
We started by checking out the purple blanket as an example and arranging the pieces for our pink blanket.
then there was the sharing of skills
shared work, lots of words, many languages, all about community
The last stitches taking place
We celebrate the end of a day of chatter and laughter and lots and lots of stitching.
A truly beautiful pink blanket and a wonderful expression of community. Thank you Noble Park Primary School Women's Group. You are brilliant!
I love seeing this project come together :)
ReplyDeleteThanks Felicity, what has been really amazing over the last two days is the community coming and talking to us as we put the project up. So many lovely people, so many different nationalities, all of them thrilled, many asking about next week's community workshops.........
