ParticipantIve just noticed on the home page that the next handout is planned for Sunday 26th October.
That’s plenty of time to get a nice stash of bags made…… 🙂
I’m in 🙂August 31, 2014 at 11:03 am #3051beattie
KeymasterGolly, I hadn’t noticed that Sazzie. Thanks for bringing it to our attention! That’s 8 weeks away, so plenty of time to run up an armful of morsbags 😀

KeymasterMaybe you’re like me and almost never read the front page? If so, you may have missed what Pol wrote today.
“Posted on August 27, 2014
People have been ordering labels like mad – so are you ready for the next handout in October?
We’ve chosen Sunday 26th of October….
The idea is to sew like billy-o to make as many lovely morsbags to hand out as possible – perhaps organise a local group for courage, support and joy, and hand out free morsbags to locals wherever you are in the world……
You can:
bag your local library
bag a local car park
bag dog walkers
bag a cinema
bag a care home
bag your neighbours
bag your Facebook friendsThe possibilities are endless and it’s up to YOU, wherever YOU are!
If you fancy joining in, give us, and your local radio/newspaper, a shout. Email, or write here to say that you’re IN and see what people in other areas are doing… “

ParticipantShall we have an international bag making weekend a few weeks before too?
Will get my thinking cap on to think of where to bag.August 31, 2014 at 11:17 pm #3061beattie
KeymasterI like the idea of another international bag making weekend Butterfly! We’re a bit busy some weekends but would take part – even if we have to move the day a little.

ParticipantGood for Fleckney Bees! I will watch from the side lines I expect. I am still almost completely tied up with nursing George at the moment – have been all this year really. I do try to keep up with the news though, and make a bag from time to time.

We’ll be away om 26th October, but I’ll give bags away on Monday 27th, the day we get home. I hope you will let me count them in! (smiley face)October 15, 2014 at 5:17 am #3278Dartfrog
ParticipantMy effort is going to have to be letterboxing – the Powers That Be decided to roster me on work all day. How rude!
