But where are the work-of-art knitted hats?

[emma T]

last pic does have Mum in the back ground , we might sell hats there next year    I have volunteered to give them a hand in setting up a collection of named snowdrops in the Abbey grounds

[Brian Ellis]

What a brilliant idea, and some lovely entries, particularly the hareball!  Thanks for sharing it all with us Emma, I bet Joe wishes he had thought of that for the Gala!

[emma T]

Hare Ball was for sale at £590 , it hadnt sold as of yesterday ! It was my favourite.

Is it wood? I liked it too. And the snowdrop jewellery. Probably a good job Joe doesn't know about it, he'd probably be obliged to but the lot for his collection.

[emma T]

It was made of clay . I think Joe might have bought the lot !

[Maggi Young]

What a fantastic show!
 So many questions.....  is the hareball made of? wood? Oops, didn't see the reply that is is clay .

( Mentioned  "hareball" to Ian and next door's cat, who happened to be passing, coughed and fainted when I said what size the "hairball" is!!!!! )

What are the  "pots" of 'drops and those in the driftwood made of?  Who made 'em?  Where do they sell them?

[emma T]

The snowdrops in the drift wood were made of Cold porcelain, made by Christina Hunt , the small one was for sale at £20 , the biggest was £55

I will find the link for the arts centre
