Another day at the farm today - not as many people but lots of friendly faces taking Morsbags to put their freshly picked fruit in! The Silver Threetles played on our covered stage rather than in the Strawberry Fields (good job they did - we had a huge storm late afternoon!) but they attracted a good crowd and performed three brilliant sets. Well done boys - you were FAB!

I've had such a good weekend coming to the farm both days.
Making and giving away bags is always fun, meeting the Sazzies was lovely and seeing my Mr Butterfly and the band play today was great. Although they didn't get to play in the field, singing Strawberry Fields Forever made them very happy!!
There is always such a lovely atmosphere at Whetstone Pastures and it seems to attract lovely people. :D
With Love From Butterfly Bags.

I have worked out why Lulu the pug liked Grumpy the best (after Waley) It was his black jacket that made him look a bit like a pug!! :lol:

And very gorgeous they are too! I've seen decorative wellies on sale but they never had them big enough for my wide feet & calves :cry: Congratulations on your colourful, matching outfit :D

These were for fat calves and very comfy. I have been told by various little catapillars belonging to Butterfly that one can wear them any time, not just for jumping in puddles :D

Wow, great reports and pics. The Sazzies had a great time and it was wonderful to meet up with morsbag friends and make some new ones. :D
We didnt make it to the farm on Sunday as Miss Evie was rather tired after playing in the fabulous playbarn on Saturday with Mr Sazzie. She is still talking about watching mummy and Rosie with the pink hair sew days later x
I'd like to say a big thank you to everyone at the farm and team Leics for making us SO welcome, we had a wonderful weekend.
(apologies for the late posting but we are staying at my parents where the internet connection is mixed)

It was lovely to see you, David, and Evie, she is such a lovely little lollipop dreamboat. :D
