In early 2019, the Running Stitchers team ran the London Landmarks Half-Marathon and were hugely successful. Not only did they all complete the distance, but they raised a lot of money for this amazing charity. And then Tracy did a fantastic job of running the London marathon. Again, the money continued to come in & to date they have raised £2,200.00 through our Just Giving pages alone.
But now there's a new challenge which we need your help with.
Bramble Running-Stitcher ALICIA is running THE GREAT NORTH RUN! From everything she’s read this is really going to test her and push her to her limit... and she doesn’t mind admitting it...it’s scary & frightening…. But no way near as scary & frightening as dementia. And therefore, we will continue to raise money for our charity the Alzheimer’s Society and we do hope many of our customers and friends will either join with us or continue to support our efforts for a charity whose vision is a world without dementia. She has made a commitment to Alzheimer’s Society to raise £250.00 for this event alone and so on behalf of the Bramble Patch we are asking family, friends, customers and fans to sponsor them in support of the fight against dementia.

And to thank you for your support we have created a new project – the Quilt Down Memory Lane Club.
As a thank-you for donations of £25 or more, we will subscribe you to our new Block-of-the-Week Club. Each week we’ll email you a pattern for a 5” x 5” patchwork block that can be hand or machine pieced. There are 53 different blocks and with a simple border, you’ll have a unique lap quilt (approx 60” square). The project is suitable for using up scraps or making a dent in your stash; or, if you prefer we can help you choose fabrics or put together a bespoke fabric pack for you.
Just let us know when you’ve made your £25 donation and we’ll add you to the Quilt Down Memory Lane Club.
