Last weekend we held our regular Made in Middlewich event at St Mary’s Parish Hall. It was a lovely day, with bright sunshine and a chill in the air, and we all enjoyed good company, tasty cake, and lots of colourful crafts to sample. The event was run by the Middlewich Creative, a collective of local artists and makers who are keen to bring the community together in celebration of the talent and skill of our residents. We were serenaded by the AMICI Chamber Choir throughout the day, and what a lovely group of musicians they are!

Here is a selection of the stalls we had on offer. I think they speak for themselves:
