Slow progress

Not much to report this week, but here is a list of things I've done this week to get closer to setting up a patchwork group
• Asked my boss if it was ok to set up a sewing group, I was a bit worried it might conflict with plans he has for the future – thumbs up from him
• Sent an email to the vicar of the church that has the venue (complete with sewing machines) I would like to use – wrong email address
• Did a bit of research into the Shoreditch WI, also known as the Shoreditch Sisters – will go along to one of their meetings when I have something concrete to tell them
• Asked if I could put some pics of the quilting workshop run last year up on the blog – big thanks to J, I'll have these up soon

And a list of thoughts
• How can you get free fabric and wadding in London – maybe I could just ask on Gumtree
• If I couldn’t get my preferred venue – where could we go instead?
• Would people be ok paying £1 a session? This money could be put towards our group quilts.
• What to put up on the ShoreditchQuilters.com website?

The weather is bleak and cold, my crochet project is going slow, but it is the weekend. Thank goodness!
