Let Hope Bloom

I'm happy to be involved with the World Vision charity as one of a bunch of volunteer crafts people. I was approached to do some very basic crochet flower workshops as part of a whole day of crafty activities for Let Hope Bloom. This is all in a run up to Floral Friday which is raising funds for vulnerable children in Cambodia.

We will all be doing something floral themed as a workshop so as well as my crochet flowers there will be floral paper cutting, ceramics, sewing etc and lots of tea and cake. A small donation is required to join in any of the craft workshops on offer.




The event is on June 27th 10 - 4pm at Ellerton Village Hall in E. Yorks and we have Linda Barker who promotes the charity giving us an opening presentation. Linda's sister Jill Ford who is a wonderful local ceramicist has organised this event.
The local school children have also recorded a song as part of the fund raising and I think they will be performing it.

Should be a fun and creative day in support of World Vision.

Hope it all goes well and good that you are part of it, you are really genuinely talented and I wish I lived near to have attended the workshop, but hope its a big success
