East Anglia proper comprises Norfolk, Suffolk, Cambridgeshire and Essex, but our members also come from Bedfordshire, eastern Northamptonshire and northern Hertfordshire. There is a lively programme of workshops, usually at least seven a year, held in the village hall of the Cambridgeshire village of Linton (CB21 4JS), which is more or less the geographical centre of the region, on Saturdays. Our year begins with the AGM and a social gathering in January, that includes a mini-supplier’s fair, a bring-and-buy table, a show-and-tell table, a lunch, and a talk.
