Well first I should say it was not the opening as originally planned; they opened a month ago, however we were their first event. We made 44 morsbags on the day which is very good going even for Team Leicester! Emma and her staff couldn’t have been more welcoming and helpful. We all thought the exhibition was splendid. We loved the room we were in, so spacious, light and airy. My favourite bit? When a kindly gentleman put £5 on the table to a chorus of NOOOOOO from us. Thank you to Tori, Maggie, Sue, Frieda, Sarah, Mary, Margaret and Kay for all their hard work leading up to and during this event. It was down to teamwork and their dedication. Love yer!
Our first customer of the day
and his bag. Note the low hanging swaggy thing! We were in a listed building and there were rules. I don’t usually do rules but there you go!
Very sweet! You can see our piece de resistance in the background made for us by our friend Sue Bee.
Here are some couples that I put together for the purpose of photography and to send to HRH
These are sisters who were racing. In the end I declared a draw
In full swing!
Richard flagged a bit at 3pm and fell off the window so Kay sat him on a chair where he was well photographed. Oh and the end of his sword snapped off!
It was a good day! Emma, the manager has invited us back to make morsbags at their medieval christmas craft fair which should be fun. 🙂
