I would expect Offcuts 2 to be like almost everyone else in the country, and not going to work or whatever else they do until at least 4th January. We seem to have a 10 day (minimum) Christmas break for all except emergencies nowadays.

I could take a break from ironing kits for Exeter and make half a dozen or so. I hear Himself on the machine while cooking breakfast downstairs, so he's on the case already.

Never mind Squeak! You're closer to the 1000 mark than you would have been without your challenge, and I'm sure you'll reach it soon.

Happy 4th morsbirthday to morsbags and all morsbaggers for tomorrow!
We've made just over 83,000 bags worldwide. I reckon we'll hit 100,000 about the end of August! Keep sewing, keep sewing!

Happy Birthday to all Morsbaggers, Thank you so much for the kind welcome to me this spring and for giving me a purpose in my retirement. I stand in awe of some of you and your dedication to the cause and am trying my best to spread the message in my little corner of West Sussex. :D :D :D Power to your needles.We'll make the 100,000 this year.

A hard challenge to meet.

How about a sweepstake for the exact date for 100,000?

Or do I see opportunities for tactical posting here?

:D

Or something like that anyway........
