EVENTS
Silver Jubilee Quilt – In 1977 the Cub Scout leader (Akela) for 8th Sutton Coldfield Cubs was John Walmsley. His wife Jane Walmsley had the idea to make a Silver Jubilee Quilt. Mrs Walmsley made up 63 panel packs and issued them to the Brownies, Cubs and Guides (boys and girls). Everyone made their best Jubilee effort to applique their individual panel and returned them to Mrs Walmsley. She then embroidered the central panel and stitched the Quilt together. Church members today will hold specific memories connected to the Quilt either as Brownie, Cub, Guide or Scout leaders, or as parents whose children completed the panels. The Quilt was ‘revealed’ at a special Silver Jubilee Party where the contributors saw the Quilt for the first time, and for several years after the Silver Jubilee, the Quilt hung in the Church in the foyer. The Quilt is back in the Church foyer to mark the Platinum Jubilee, come in and see it otherwise it can be viewed on our Facebook page.
