1/8 The #parlicovidmemorialquilt project aims: We wanted there to be a clear driving force behind the quilt's creation. We developed the four c’s to act as the thread running through, & joining, the entire project. These 4 c’s are: Create, Connect, Convey, Commemorate.

I made 3 patchwork blocks for the Covid Memorial @ParliQuilt in tribute to my constituents Margaret Gunshorn and Jane Rowbotham and all the other key workers in Worsley and Eccles South who died during the pandemic 👇

Here are the first 64 patchwork blocks all sewn together! These patchwork blocks are being pieced together to create a lasting textile memorial of the Pandemic that represents the multitude of experiences within Parliament whilst also demonstrating unity through a single quilt.

👏 Brilliant to see that the beautiful @ParliQuilt has made a return to Parliament. It's such a moving tribute to those we have loved and lost during the COVID-19 pandemic, with patches from constituencies up and down the country.

Great to see the block from #plymouth I submitted to the @ParliQuilt now seen together. The Plymouth Covid Quilt is in my office window before it starts a tour of the city to remember those we lost, the sacrifices made and the people who got us through it. Thank you.

Looking forward to seeing #ParliamentCoronavirusMemorialQuilt today in ⁦@HouseofCommons⁩ -Basingstoke’s “patch” is from the Mayoress, an expert quilter; her moving contribution is about how vital communication has been to combat loneliness thru the Pandemic @BasingMayor

"Stitching is also meditative & therapeutic with each stitch capturing a thought, moment or a memory. We lost both friends & family during the Pandemic & this panel is dedicated to their memory & to the memory of those lost across my Kirkcaldy & Cowdenbeath constituency." 3/4

@JNHanvey told us: "This block was stitched during the Pandemic by my partner Lino who was raised by his aunt, a seamstress. As a child my own mother taught me to sew buttons on fabrics, a skill that has withstood the test of time in its usefulness." 2/4
