Pendle Threads stitching @ Gawthorpe Hall


Carol S, Patricia B, Pam W, and Val C spent 4 lovely hours stitching and chatting at Gawthorpe Hall on Saturday 8th July.  They were were extremely busy all day and actually stitched little, but spoke to many visitors who were impressed with our mini display and took away with them, programmes and details of our Pendle group.
