You are warmly invited to Fleece and Fibre Day at Hill Top Stables, Twyford Road, Marefield, Leicestershire. LE7 9LQ. from 11-4pm, arrive any time after 10.30 -see detailed directions below.
Lizzy and Wes are the warmest hosts you could wish for and their Studio in the Barn*** is lovely - it has plenty of space for people bring wheels and try out their purchases from the amazing 
fibres Lizzy has is stock - see the list below!  If you can tear yourself away from the fleece and fibre for long enough, there is a big table where we can have a shared lunch - and maybe a little 'refreshing' drink! (Jane has led us all, willingly, into temptation with her Damson Gin).


As well as this year's clip of local fleece and fibre Lizzy,  now has  a new range of animal, vegetable and mineral fibres, samples of some and quantities of others for sale including:

at the Studio in the Barn,   Hill Top Stables, Twyford Road, Marefield, Leicestershire. LE7 9LQ

When you get to Tilton on the Hill,  carry on going straight through and coming out of Tilton you are going downhill, partway down the road does a sharp left and on this bend there is a right hand turn (field road) which has a weight restriction on it, turn right down there and keep on going, you will come to a cattle grid, go over this, sign says Marefield to the right,ignore this and carry straight on up the hill, past the cream bungalow, we are the new build next door (narrowboat outside the barn). Tip: if you come to a railway bridge - DONT go under it. Instead, turn left just before it and you will shortly see the narrowboat on your left across the fields, take the next left to get to it.
Looking forward to a fabulous day.
Kind regards,
PamPS If anyone would like a lift from Stoke Albany please let me know.
