Are you a lace-maker or do you know someone who is?

Making a special post for this lace making equipment which was brought in to the swap in June.

Two polystyrene blocks with a lace design pinned to them. Both have their bobbins (if that’s their correct name) attached.

It you’d like to have them, please message me and we’ll organise collection.

I picked up a felting kit at the last craft swap and made a housewarming present for a friend. The leftover wool, felting needles and the stabby foam block will be coming back to the next swap to find its third owner of the year.

Thank you for having us The Panacea Museum. Lovely to welcome so many people for craft swapping - regulars and newbies alike.

Next date to follow soon. In the meantime, I’d love to see pictures of anything you create with your new craft supplies.

Do you know of any local schools, charities or community groups who need craft materials? Please tag them in the comments or point them in my direction. I always have leftover supplies looking for new homes.
