Deliveries in 2012
Thursday 20th December
Delivery to Church of St James, Pulloxhill, Beds.
3rd & final delivery of the day to Pulloxhill, in fact the final delivery of 2012. These cushions are a good idea, any of the congregation who prefer comfort can pick one up and sit in their favourite spot.
It was suggested that more of these cushions may be purchased as they become popular. We got a note from the church " Lovely Job, Thank you" It's our pleasure!
Thursday 20th December
Delivery to Church of St Peter & Paul, Little Gaddesdon, Herts
2nd delivery of the day to this beautiful church. This is also our second delivery to the church inside a month. The congregation having filled some of the pews with new cushions, decided to complete the job.
Everyone was pleased that we were able to produce the goods before Christmas A note came with the balance "many thanks"
Thursday 20th December
Delivery to Church of St James, Bramley, Tadley, Hants.
First delivery of the day to this ancient church. Another rainy day! One of the pictures above shows some 16th century wall paintings. They were discovered in more recent times having been plastered over by Puritans.
Thursday 20th December
Delivery to St Mylor Church, Mylor Bridge, Falmouth
We used a courier for this extra long distance delivery of Altar Rail Kneelers. They chose the same blue as the pictures below of the Dingwall church. (12th December). These two churches are over 700 miles apart!
Wednesday 19th December
Delivery to St Mark's Church, Mark Cross, Crowborough, East Sussex.
Our driver & mate were made most welcome on a cold, wet & windy evening. Their cup of tea and a snack were much appreciated after a long gruelling drive from base.
The fabric is a substantial chenille and should offer comfort and warmth to all who sit on the new cushions. We got a note from the Church Warden dated 27th December "Everyone is delighted with the cushions and I would like to thank you for fulfilling
the order so quickly and efficiently"
Wednesday 12th December
Delivery to Dingwall FP Church, Highland, Scotland
Our second visit to this beautiful church in the north of Scotland. It is the first time we've supplied this attractive royal blue fabric. We think & hope it will be very popular.
The chapel above is adjacent to the main body of the church. We got a note from the church. "Thank you for all your help, congregation have all been favourable, so the customers seem to be satisfied!!" The note has reminded the driver of his satisfying day!
Tuesday 11th December
Delivery to St Mary the Virgin, Mortlake High St., London
These pew cushions were made in a waterproof fabric for a special needs area.
Tuesday 4th December
Delivery to St Andrew's, Weaverthorpe, Nth Yorkshire.
The church is of Norman origin and stands proudly on top of a hill overlooking the village. The driver borrowed the key (seen in picture above). He said it was the biggest key he'd ever seen and asked for an extra bonus for carrying such a heavy weight.
The covers are in a beautiful terra cotta chenille, going so well with the floor tiles.
Thursday 29th November
Delivery to St Peter & Paul, at Little Gaddesden, Berkhamsted, Herts
2nd delivery of the day.
It is a lovely church in a remote rural setting. The covers are again in a beautiful terra cotta chenille (as above), & going so well with the floor tiles.
Thursday 29th November
Delivery to St Mary's , Steeple Ashton, Trowbridge, Wilts.
This church befits a city, and here it is in a beautiful village. There are at least two different types of ceiling, carved wood & carved stone. The church makes our blue cushions look like a very modest contribution! Worth a visit.
Tuesday 27th November
Delivery to Waen Congregational Chapel, at St Asaph
This was our second visit and delivery to the chapel. It was the day of the terrible floods in Nth Wales. Luckily a member of the congregation was able to steer our driver to the chapel, managing to detour around the floods.

Delivery to Watergate Methodist Chapel , Brecon
3rd delivery of the day.
Further details to follow.

This is a lovely church outside Maidstone. The fabric chosen is our Lady Blue. The church warden kindly sent these pictures, our driver having forgotten the camera (again). However the pictures are better than he would have taken!
Wednesday 17th October
Delivery to St Mary & All Saints,Whalley.
The church was awaiting a new carpet so the delivery was made to Church Warden's house. Photo to follow we hope, the picture of the church has been borrowed from their website (thank you).

Tuesday 26th June
Delivery to St Mary's Church, West Acklam, Middlesborough, Nth Yorks
We delivered just after the Morning Service and the driver was greeted by many friendly members of the congregation. None of these lovely people new what the driver had brought, so the Vicar had a great surprise
for them at the following service! The main body of the church was completed with the fabric we have named "Lady Blue", in addition we did the choir stalls. No more complaints from the choir then!!! We are so pleased to have
been invited to supply these pew cushions to West Acklam for the parish have come through a very difficult period during which the lead from the roof was stolen twice, culminating in an awful flood which ruined the floor. After much battling,
an insurance claim was honoured & the replacement floor was completed in December 2010. Now new cushions as well, the congregation will be pleased at last, after all the hardship.
The stained glass shown is just a very small part of the spendid West Window. You may like to see further pictures.
