Thank you Sarah!
We went to Coastal Valley again in each of the last two weeks, finding different campers every time. We made nine bags on 23rd August
Recently I’ve been amusing myself appliqueing different motifs onto plain bags, using gorgeous curtain fabric samples which are too small and stiff to make into bags. The ones with cat motifs were very popular!
And we made fourteen bags this week. We met several more lovely families with children of all ages. I was amazed by the concentration displayed by the first customer of the week, a little three year old who turned the handle for her mum who did the steering. She was a bit cautious at first (good idea!) but soon got the hang of it and was brilliant at stopping immediately when required. I find that most really small children get bored before the bag is complete, but this little one was still engaged and interested right to the end.

We were too busy to take many photos until we had nearly finished our session, but I did manage this snap of one happy camper, a member of the last family of the day to sew.
Fortunately, we didn’t encounter any more reckless drivers on Cornwall’s narrow twisting lanes, so had no more near-death experiences while travelling to Newquay!
