Friendship Quilt at the Castle

 There's a free event at Hay Castle on Saturday 15th April, from 11am to 1pm.

Emily Hedges organised the sewing of squares for a quilt over lockdown.  The theme is friendship, and the idea grew out of a sewing group at Welcome Days organised for asylum seekers by the Hay, Brecon and Talgarth Sanctuary for Refugees group.  The individual embroidered squares have now all been sewn together, but the quilt needs to be finished off, which is the project for the event.  The quilt will eventually be sold to raise funds for the group in Swansea which supports refugees there.
