I would have brought these, but unfortunately they went a few days ago to elder Gdcs’ former pre-school, after a request from one of the staff (who knows I’m a bit of a knitting-nutter).

I could bring some English Bluebells I've been growing from collected seed.

I’ll bring some of my tote bags, in which I’ll have put Nutella brownies, marmalade, piccalilli and the specially adapted knickers I did for Iris, earning me the title of Knicker Queen!

Will your tits be ready in time to go on display, Fanny? ?

Ooh , I would love an Aloe Vera plant.
I could bring a Carrot Cake.

Brilliant Anne! Put me down for three pups!

I will bring about 20 aloe vera plants that I have been growing for over a year from little off shoots ( pups). They just need repotting then they are ready, priced at £1.50 I think!

This week I am going to have my first attempt at felting wool.
The result should be a little blue tit. Well, that’s the plan.

I have promised my therapist that I will do it, and send her a photo, in an attempt to do something creative.

Although I’m not at all certain that it will be GN Spring Fayre Worthy! ?

I'll bring some home made marmalade. I use my Tasmanian cousin's recipe - nice and tart (the marmalade, not my cousin, he's lovely and not at all tarty).

I always give each batch a name depending on what I did on the day I made it. This batch is Icy Sea Swim Marmalade 2022.

Would be very happy to bring home a lemon drizzle cake if anyone's baking.

I see so much talent in this Forum - we have crafters, knitters, cooks, gardeners, authors, painters, the list goes on!

As the weather promises to be glorious this weekend, wny not a celebratory Spring Fayre, showcasing our skills?!
What can you bring?

PS I could do with purchasing a nice cake for our tea! Tx.
