Last Jubilee Bunting Workshop – Friday, 1st April

Jacqui Sewell needs all bunting triangles back to the Comrades Hall tomorrow please.  Although Jubilee isn’t until June 2nd, she needs to count how many have been made, sort them into colours – with Emma House & her Girl Guides who will be helping with this and who are assisting with the colour themes.

On Friday 7th May, there is the huge task of sewing the triangles on to the header tapes, of which there are many meters – if you can help with this, please go along at 10am on Friday, 7th.  Jacqui will take a couple sewing machines with her to the Comrades Hall.

This will be a remarkable accomplishment and decorate our village at the beginning of June 2022.

Any queries, please contact Jacqui on 01308 867145.

Ukraine Colours To Be Included In Village Bunting

Village resident Jacqualyne Sewell has now gathered nearly a blanket box full of Bunting Triangles for the village’s Jubilee Fun Day celebrations.

As much bunting as possible is being made to decorate the village for Broadwindsor Fun Group‘s Jubilee celebrations at the start of June.

However with what’s going on in Ukraine, she is asking if anyone has any Blue / Yellow fabric that they could donate for them to make Bunting Triangles to show our support – please contact Jacqui if you can help – 01308 867145

There are two workshops remaining:

  • Friday, 1st April
  • Friday, 6th May

All the workshops take place at the Comrades Hall during Post Office hours, 10am – 12.30pm.

If you can help by donating fabric (cotton or poly cotton) cutting out, sewing or even just turning the triangles the right way out & ironing them please contact Jacqui on 01308 867145.

Bunting!

Bunting triangles are well underway to decorate our village for the Jubilee weekend celebrations in June. Jacqui’s ambitious goal is to have enough bunting to go all around Bernards’ Place, up the High Street and down Back Lane with cotton flags – no flapping plastic!

Regardless of age or gender, if you can help by:

  • donating fabric (cotton or poly cotton)
  • cutting out,
  • sewing or
  • turning the triangles the right way out & ironing them

Please contact Jacqui Sewell on 01308 867145. Jacqui is also holding Bunting Workshops at the Post Office on the 1st Friday of every month – there’s fabric to take away to cut out the triangles (template provided, cut out triangles etc …..

Bunting For Jubilee 2022

Can you help make the 2022 Platinum Jubilee Weekend really special for Broadwindsor?

Village resident, Parish Councillor and member of Broadwindsor Fun Group, Jacqui Sewell is at the helm of our village’s Bunting Project for our Queen’s Platinum Jubilee celebrations next June.

Jacqui, who is known to be proficient with her sewing machine skills through her work at local craft fairs and with Dawn Newberry at Dorset Designers on Facebook, has this request:

Will you help me make fabric bunting as it would have been in the 1950’s, not noisy plastic flags flapping in the breeze? I want to recycle – repurpose – reuse as much as possible!

  • Do you have any cotton fabric (flowers, abstract, plain) that you could donate?
  • Are you able to cut out triangles (template provided)?
  • Or could you fix the triangles onto the tape ready for sewing?
  • Perhaps you could sew up the triangles?

If you can help in any way please telephone me on 01308 867145. I’m also starting monthly Bunting Workshops at the Post Office on 2nd Friday of every month beginning on 14th January 2022
