Seeking Volunteer Stitchers
27th March, 2023
Some time ago we are were contacted about a sampler that a lady started in 1953 with a coronation theme. The lady suffered a personal trauma and the piece was left unfinished. One of our tutors was going to finish it as a voluntary act but, alas, her circumstances have changed and she can no longer do this.
The owner of the piece who is related to the original lady but is not a stitcher, has agreed to pay for the threads if someone can finish it. She does not have the funds to pay for the Studio to do it. I know this is not what we normally do but I am asking if there are any volunteers out there who would agree to help finish it (perhaps a few people to do part each)? If you are interested in helping please contact Gillian Williams on [email protected]. This is a one-off but your help would be appreciated.
