Maldon Crafts

We saw a sign (acturally upside down so that the arrow pointed the correct way) that led us to the Maldon Quilt Exhibition. It was worth the walk - down a back street, over a bridge and up a slope. There were loads of large quilts, creating room partitions to walk in and out of, something like the way some shops display large rugs.


Barb found a really nice gift for someone special. It was encouraging to purchase something so especially nice and made locally.


Now while the women folk feasted on the quilts inside the hall, the men folk could relax in the annex outside and enjoy wood turning demonstrations. The exhibition organisers perceived that this would work to keep all the husbands happy while their wives broused. Peter was given a turned seed measuring poker just for watching with John and chatting with the woodturner. A reward for being patient and happy.
