It was a wonderful evening and so lovely to see Harborough Hitbags achieving so much. The Waitrose connections is fab and I am hoping to involve the other Leicestershire Waitrose’s with the help of Elaine. This is the first supermarket to embrace what we are trying to achieve. I was hoping you would post the poem. As Claire said the pod members with different skills and interests that make the morsbag thing work. I have a few more photos.
@Claire, would you mind posting about the evening on Facebook morsbags.com Leicestershire so all the other pods can see what you have achieved. So that is 2 contestants from the Sewing Bee that know about morsbags – Tamara and Heather. That has got to be a good thing! Onwards and upwards Harborough Hitbags! I think you could be in second place this time next year! Hope the 2000 labels and threads will be of use for that! 😉
He’s in the doghouse at the moment. I wrote a reply to a lady on Facebook who wants to make morsbags, explained all about the labels, sturdiness, tally, free etc and he nonchalantly walked across the keyboard and wiped out the lot! Should have saved it I know!
Ha! Well you know all the scrap fabric, curtain tape etc that we keep, well we stuffed it down the sides of the dresser so at least he can’t get behind it now. he is definitely a mountaineer cat!
Ha! He has certainly got his feet under the table now! He has settled in very well. The first night he hid under our very heavy pine dresser and we had to empty and dismantle it to get him out!
I don’t think so Beattie because they are a bit tiny still and we are picking up Blue Moon on saturday but Brits are very compatible so we don’t envisage any problems.
Kitten 2 will be one of these boys. They are lilac British Shorthairs. We have already chosen a name – Bo Jangles (sticking with the song title names) They are 2 weeks old and conveniently we share a birthday. Pet name will be Bo and/or Jan. Its all very exciting!
Yes Krisaby her talk was all about Sewing Bee and her approach to sewing which is all about reconstructing clothes from charity shops. She brought along a rail of clothes she had made and we were able to have a close look. She stayed after and chatted with everyone. She said Claudia was a hoot (I am a great fan of Claudia Winkleman) and May was very kind. She also said she has only watched a few of the episodes because it brings back the tension but she is really pleased she went on the show and would recommend it to everyone. All the clothes that the contestants made belong to the production company but they should have them back in a year. She was very interested in morsbags.
My plan for the challenge is starting to come through! First stage was to nick two of my son’s golf shirts out of his wardrobe!
We shall post more photos after June’s Sew Sociable!
