The Crafty Cafe

I have had the perfect start to my Saturday.  I discovered a new 'Spinning' club has started in my home town.  It meets at 8.30am on the first Saturday of the Month in this beautiful little 'Crafty Cafe'.  8.30am is a little early for me on a Saturday.  I did not set my alarm and thought 'If I want to go badly enough I will be awake'.  I am rather pleased I made it, it was a great start to the day.  There were four other spinners and I enjoyed the chat and the spin for an hour.  The Crafty Cafe is a little hub of Crafty activity and runs many workshops.
It was a lovely light room to work in surrounded by pretty 'hand mades'.
I enjoyed the company of the other ladies, it is lovely to chat about spinning, fleece, fibre, knitting and crochet.  There were four 'spinning wheels' in total and I really like looking at other wheels.  My all male household just ain't that interested!  I will definitely be putting these dates in my diary, well worth getting out of bed for on a Saturday morning.  Housework will be on the back burner now as it has put me in a crafty mood for the rest of the day!  I have just cleaned the Chicken Coop though, gotta get your priorities right.  The ladies are very happy and love 'Coop Cleaning Day'.  They come and chatter away, bustling in and out, supervising my work and checking I come up to scratch.  I hope you are set for a good weekend.

  11. Ooooh that cafe looks lovely! Do they do a nice line in cake? I would love to be bale to go somewhere like that and meet other like minded people! I always worry that I bore people stupid about my hobbies and being able to chat away about the same thing and not be considered a bore would be lovely!
    Glad the girls are happy too! Sounds like you are having a wonderful start to your weekend x x

I appreciate and enjoy reading all of the feedback from your comments. Thank you for taking the time to stop by and sharing your thoughts. Sadly I have found it necessary to enable word verification, something I was trying to avoid...but I am receiving an unmanageable deluge of Spam! We don't want that do we? xxx :)
