You’re right, Sazzie, we did have a good position and it was more spacious than last year.
We had another busy day on Sunday. The show was open one hour less than the day before and we made 60 morsbags.
We arrived promptly and spent a little time winding bobbins and getting some more “pleb” kits ready, so as to have an alternative to the “royal” kits, though these proved popular again.
As the morning went on, we got quite busy, but had a nice flow of customers again, the queue never numbered more than four and the waiting time wasn’t too long, with eight sewing machines in use.
It was very useful having a dedicated person working on giving information and handing out leaflets and pre-made bags to people who couldn’t stay to make one, reeling in new customers, and so on! Nice work Maggie and Freda on Saturday, and Offcuts, Kay and Mary on Sunday
Here are a couple of photos of my “Indian Summer” themed bag. It was only as I was going through my photos that I realised that I had forgotten to pay my £1 entry fee!! What a silly billy! 😕

The whole bag folds into the pocket – the decoration on the pocket is on the inside when the bag is opened up for use.
What struck me was what a “cosy” show this was – all the lovely felty things and lots of quilts gave a very “warm” impression.
