I'm just popping in here quickly to let you know that Rachel of Stitched in Color is forming a new circle of do.Good Stitches that will be based in the UK.
I've been involved with do.Good Stitches for more than 2 years now and I think it's a great way to do a little bit for some very worthy causes. I've got to know some lovely people in the time I've been in the Joy Circle and we've made some beautiful quilts that have hopefully brought a bit of comfort when it's needed.
If anybody is interested in finding out more you can visit the main Flickr group here, or have a look at this blog post from Rachel last year. Rachel is looking for active Flickr-users who enjoy a modern quilt style. Those that are interested can register here.
I think a UK based circle is brilliant, as we can keep postage costs down and make quilts that will be donated to local communities. If anybody has any questions about it, I will do my best to answer :)
