Annual Lace Day

Full day - being a committee member, don’t always benefit from enjoying the lace day as too busy helping out to make sure others have a good time.

A successful day. Speaker, Sarah Slater, was so informative and interesting (she was our speaker last year) and funny with her historical knowledge. She is a tour guide at Hampton Court, wears historical costume when at work. She “dressed” a dummy with layers - petticoats, stays, pockets, padding (for bottom), skirt. These were the days no underwear worn!

I think we did well with our raffle also - money to go towards a local group.

Long and exhausting day. Feet up tonight - strictly starting.
