A warm welcome awaited us when we arrived at Tracy's Easter Playday workshop in her lovely home at Slaidburn near Clitheroe. Throughout the day while we worked we were plied with homemade buns and cups of tea in china cups. Lunch was a lovely homemade lasagne and salad followed by homemade ice cream and fruit. More cake and tea came round in the afternoon.
This lovely family home is filled with wonderful creations made by Tracy, who is one of the most warmhearted and kindest people I have met. The whole day passed so quickly we were loathe to leave this cosy country house.

Each of us was given a box
with materials in to make a fabric windmill, a fabric chick, bunting and a
stitched canvas. Armed with instruction sheets and Tracy's guidance we
set off cutting, stitching and assembling our creations

Thanks to you and Tracy for a great day. Have already checked out the recipe for Tracy's ice cream. Now just need to find somewhere to hang the bunting.
