Welcome to you all, and happy morsbagging!

I noticed a couple of nice comments –

Holly Hedge writes
“Making bags in conjunction with Holly Hedge Animal Sanctuary. Based in Bristol and the surrounding areas. We are making bags using fabric, clothing and other donations made to their charity shop, and giving the bags away instead of plastic ones in the shop when sales are made. This way we are reducing the amount of waste from the shop, and spreading the word about the bags too!”

DailyThread writes
“An enthusiastic and very friendly group meeting weekly on Thursday evenings 6.30-9pm. We share skills, inspire each other, chat, craft together and enjoy tea and cake. We have sewing machines, morsbag labels and a stash of fabric. Please join us at #DailyThread at The Old Print Works (oldprintworks.org)”

The Old Print Works looks fascinating! 😀

Valbags writes
“Usually a solo podder, but occasionally joined by friends and family. Lorraine is the latest recruit. I made the very first morsbag!”

Lovely to hear from you Val!

And on we go with February bag-making….. 😀
