Parkhouse Patchwork 35th Anniversary Charity Quilt: 'Jewel'

As part of the celebrations marking its 35th anniversary, Parkhouse Patchwork is proud to present 'Jewel,' a stunning charity quilt created by members of the group. This special quilt will be raffled to raise funds for the Seamoor Cancer Support Unit at North Devon District Hospital, with all proceeds going directly to this invaluable service.

The Seamoor Cancer Support Unit was chosen as the beneficiary because several of our members have relied on its care during their cancer treatment. By supporting this raffle, we hope to contribute to the continued operation and expansion of the unit, ensuring that as many patients as possible can access its vital services.

The raffle draw for 'Jewel' will take place on Saturday, 14th June 2025, coinciding with the final day of our bi-annual Exhibition at the Parkhouse Centre in Bude. This exhibition is a celebration of our members' work, providing an opportunity for visitors to admire the artistry and dedication that goes into patchwork and quilting.
