During the First World War soldiers and their families relied heavily on letters and parcels to raise their morale. Sally showed us the work of a team of textile artists and Cotham School GCSE textile students demonstrating their amazing sewing skills. 
They replicated some of the parcels and memorabilia showing us the pleasure the contents gave those receiving them.
Their work was displayed at an exhibition at Bristol Cathedral and continues to be displayed in local libraries:
Fishponds Library BS16 3UHL from 5th-19th Sept.
Hillfields Library BS16 4HL from 23rd Sept.-11th Oct.
Bishopston Library BS7 8BN from 16th Oct.-27th Nov.
