Make Do and Mend

 I have been very preoccupied this week with ideas for our 

contribution to the 40's Weekend in Pateley Bridge.

August 17th & 18th.

Had a 'light bulb' moment and thought that the Make-Do and Mend

philosophy promulgated during the Second World War

would fit in perfectly with Ethel's Haberdashery.

I found this lovely image online from the era, that looked a lot like Ethel

and also the two below.

                                                    

Going to make a promotional poster of some sort using these.  

It's still fermenting in my brain.  Going to dress up too.

Highly delighted, I successfully bid for this Land Army Apron on ebay. 

 An idea is forming ...... got to go.

more later.
