...at group today. Now we know why we have a waiting list!!
And there was a lot of busy ladies around, including "E" who had had a fall and was sporting quite a nice set of bruises, but was keen to get a huge number of "reindeer food" sacks ready for a rainbow group. There's loyalty!

Next Monday afternoon we hope to have Jill from Sew Northampton showing us how to use those extra feet that we had with our machines and that we keep looking in despair. Bring along your machine and any feet that you would like to know how it works!
I will confirm her attendance and post here later in the week.
