Morsbags News for May

[beattie]

Well, the big news is the safe arrival of our youngest morsbagger, Araminta (“Minnie”) Morsman who put in an appearance almost two weeks ago.
Pol tells me she’s doing well and a very peaceful, composed baby – hooray!! 😀

Just like last month, several of the new pods got started making morsbags promptly and appear in both lists. If this is you, you get an especially big pat on the back! 😀

So, an excellent month’s morsbagging everyone! Let’s see if we can keep it up next month 😀

SundayPicnicClub – lovely name for a pod. Creates an image somewhat at variance with the view from my window. More of a gale here

Fantastic! and thank you Beattie for compiling the information for us. It is very interesting. My favourite pod name is Tortoise but they all make me wonder where the names come from!

[butterfly bags]

That’s great that so many pods were busy making bags!

[beattie]

I also often wonder about the names pods choose. Sometimes a pod changes its name and that makes me speculate too – did they just have a better idea, or is there a more specific reason?

Am loving the monthly news and breakdown can’t wait to see the next!
Thanks Beattie
