QUILTERS are putting in a last stitch in time for their first major exhibition.

And it will include examples of how they are making a hospital baby unit brighter and more homely.

The 40-strong Forest Quilters group who enjoy sewing sessions at Broadwaters Community Centre are putting their work on display at St Mary's Church, Kidderminster.

The needleworkers have contributed to other artwork exhibitions in Wyre Forest in the past.

The exhibition in aid of the National Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Children will include a range of quilts made especially to brighten up the baby unit at Birmingham Children's Hospital.

The exhibition will run today and tomorrow from 10am until 5pm, and on Saturday and Sunday from 10am to 4pm will include a quilt raffle.
