Comfort Quilts for the Women’s Refuge

Club member, Tricia Chapman, has many skills, one of which is making quilts. Together with Cindy, Kip, Pat, Christine and Elizabeth, of the Yorkshire Yanks Quilt Group, plus the help of Tricia’s personal friends Beryl and Isabel, some wonderful quilts have been made for the children of the Harrogate Refuge. Tricia said “We have made these quilts for the children of the Refuge, to provide them with a little home comfort, whilst they are at the Refuge and to take with them when they leave. We have made them in different sizes for all ages and we do hope that they enjoy them”. A message from the Harrogate & District Soroptimists has been put on the back of each quilt as a reminder of where they came from.
