Next handout and international making weekend.

[butterfly bagsParticipant]

I’ve just noticed on the home page that March 5th is the next big handout day!! So if we have the International Morsbag making weekend on the 27th/28th Feb with 29th bonus day added, it all fits very nicely.
What does everyone else think?

I spotted the next handout’s date last night too, Butterfly, but had already logged out. I think the two weekends are great timing. 😀

On another topic, are you going to make 10 themed morsbags for the competition?

PS, Cornwall celebrates St Piran’s Day on 5th March. My choir, Aggypella, will be singing outside the cinema in Redruth. Perhaps I can get there early and bag people, or maybe bag them after we perform…..

Beattie, Shall I do a new post for the handout and making weekend or would you like to do it? I’m not sure what information needs to be included.
Congratulations on the new grandchild too!!

Sounds a great tie-in Butterfly

I have my idea for the 10 themed bag comp – just mustn’t leave it to the last minute!

Hi Butterfly, sorry I’ve only just seen your post. Do you think we need a new thread or post? This one seems OK to me, but go ahead if you want to change anything.

(Thanks for the congratulations, by the way 😀 )

Is everybody prepped and ready for the International Morsbagging Weekend this weekend?!

[beattieKeymaster]

I have plenty of kits but not much time to sew. If all goes to plan I’ll be able to run up a couple of bags, probably in the evening.

I’m at a cheerleading competition with Keavie tomorrow but will sew on Sunday and Monday!

[offcutsParticipant]

Same here, well not the cheerleading bit! We are going to pick up our Bruce Springsteen tickets in Coventry tomorrow (SQUEAL!!!)

Tori were you thinking of keeping a tally on our fb page as well. Might encourage a few more people to make? I shall be making competition bags 🙂

18 bags from Macs Bags today. Hopefully we will add more before Monday.

Nice work, Macs Bags! We’ve had guests this weekend, so I’m just getting started now 🙂

Good morning. I was at a cheer competition with Keavie yesterday (she is part of 2 squads (juniors & seniors) and they both got first places and her junior squad won Grand Champions!) so I didn’t get any bags made.
Well done Mac Bags!!!
My friend, Louise, makes her bags in batches so makes loads of handles, then adds all the handles, then adds the labels etc. So she had lots of bags in various stages and FINISHED 40 bags yesterday!!
I’ve got a Sew Sociable meeting this morning and then I will be at my machine!!

[beattieKeymaster]

Hi! I’ve been inspired by the posts above and will try to fit in a little sewing this morning before we go out.
Well done Macs Bags, well done Keavie, well done Louise!
Looking forward to hearing from you again soon JenMeister & Offcuts.

I can’t make competition bags as I don’t have the material I need yet. Might have to have some time off to visit charity shops….
