Kingsand Quilter’s impressive new work The Kingsand Quilters officially handed over their newly completed wall hanging quilted Christmas panel to Stephen Michael who received the quilt on behalf of the Kingsand Community Hall for display in the hall every Christmas. The idea for the quilt came from Mr Michael who saw the image on a Christmas Advent calendar before last Christmas. He thought it would make a wonderful picture for the Hall and approached the Quilters. The project has just been completed and Mr Michael expressed his thanks for all the hard work of the Kingsand Quilters and their generosity in donating it to the Community Hall. This quilt’s first public display to the people of Kingsand and Cawsand was be at the switching on of the Christmas Tree lights on Saturday November 21 during the annual carol singing, mulled wine
and mince pies evening at the Community Hall. Mrs Moira Knaggs is pictured (left) presenting the quilt to Mr Michael together with (from left to right), Monica Maaz, founding
quilter Deli Gaskin, Sally Radley, Sam Devine, Sheila Weetman, Kathy Elworthy, Judith Sheperd, Maureen Elworthy, Carol Nichols, Betty Gwyther. Quilters unable to be present
