National Day of Stitch - Saturday 1 August 2015 and our Fantastic Felt Fish  We
had a stall on Chesterfield Market. We displayed the felt fish that we
had made previously and had prepared puffer fish kits. If someone
started a fish on the market, they could take the fish home to complete.Photograph: A typical Puffer Fish made by one of our members before the event.   Ann and Rosemary setting up the stall on a very windy Saturday morning.  "It blew up in the afternoon and we did more saving of flying fish, etc than stitching! Everything ended up under various boxes and the cloth was tucked under the table top by my husband James. A neighbour's stall had one of her clothes stands blown over, so some of us helped her rescue her stuff. It also rained on and off. We had some interested people at 1.30 and a number of people turned up at 3.30 so we over ran." And here are the fish that we made |
