Today is World AIDS Day. Last year, I had the great privilege to be involved with @thequiltersguild and @thtorguk.bsky.social to create a memorial quilt for Terry Higgins. In memory of all the men, women and children lost to this virus.

I really must quilt my Kaffe Fassett quilt top. I’m sure I’m not the only one with several finished quilt tops waiting to be quilted and finished. I do finish things too! #quiltsky #quilting #sewing #menwhosew #menwhoquilt

Spent the day up at #crichtramwayvillage with other #crichcare volunteers showing the site some love doing maintenance jobs.

As @harrysimmonds.bsky.social coined it, good to be back with the “tramily”. Great to see so many young people giving their time. More tomorrow.

I remember them in cobbled streets in Liverpool. They were occasionally unearthed by roadworks in Leeds and donated to the Crich Tramway museum. The council had a connection through one of the officers.
