Today, our little village held its annual village produce show in the community centre. For years I have been saying that I will enter and I never have. Till today.
This morning I decided to enter my Rainbow Hexies cushion. It was competing in the “all crafts” section as there wasn’t a quilting one and had to compete with some fabulous woodwork, a bag, fabric covered boxes and other things. I didn’t win but I got a Highly Commended and am very happy with that.
Now, I was a bit unhappy today as I am at times a little blonde. The enrolment form had the opening times on and I didn’t check them before I dropped my cushion off.
Once I realised that I didn’t know what time to go back for it I checked times on the website where it said 12 noon. Off I trundled to find the doors closed. Slight panic on my part, home to check website again, call number of guy in charge, no answer. Really annoyed now as I want my cushion back. Fast forward to 3.30pm when I take the dog out, walking past the community centre. The centre is open and they’re putting stuff away. Viewing time was from 2pm till 3pm. Arrgggh! At least I got my cushion back.
Well done! It’s lovely! (Taking part in the village show means you really are British now you know!!)
