SOMETHING TO TOUCH!

QCWA Parkhurst, Ridgelands, and Yeppoon members and friends of the Parkhurst Patchwork Group have made and distributed Tactile Aprons (also known as Fiddle Mats) to the Rockhampton Base hospital and local Nursing Homes. They have distributed 14, 10 ready to go with further orders received.
Aprons or small quilts which have lots of interesting things to fiddle with have had a calming influence on stressed patients.
