Share the love

Nine crafty GoodGymers responded to a plea from the Craft Coop to assist in the production of poppies which will be used to decorate Windsor Parish Church for Remembrance Sunday. This ambitious project will see thousands of poppies cascading down the front of the church. Poppies could be made of any textile as long as they are weatherproof! The Goodgymers exercised their fingers, thumbs and brains knitting and crocheting over 235 poppies between them in their spare time. Thanks all, it's a great contribution to this community project, and the Craft Coop are extremely grateful
