We are the Textile Treasures

A happy bunch today meeting our friends from the Scottish equivalent - the Rural Women's Institute who've helped us with our exhibition. The show was fairly quiet at times but became a little busier in the middle of the day and, as usual, everyone was overwhelmingly complimentary about the exhibits. It's so rare to see "everyday" needlework of such quality at shows such as these and it's clear that there is a great deal of interest in it all.

The Scots ladies are so friendly and welcoming and it's fun chatting to many of them. The temperature stayed comfortably warm for most of the day until late afternoon when we were getting tired and it got rather chilly. We'll take another layer tomorrow "in case".



Three days to go...
