We will be making poppies for the final time…… so far we have raised nearly £900 for The British Legion which is fantastic!
 
If you’d like to join in please bring some red/green fabric or yarn & some black buttons, a basic sewing kit, knitting needles or crochet hook. You can either knit, crochet or sew your poppies, Jenny will be showing us how.
Or you can just bring your own project!
Booking is essential…… you can either book online here (recommended) or email me at info@makedoandmend.info 
 
If you would be interested in selling poppies in a workplace or group please let me know & I will pass on your details to Jenny.
