The Guildhall Service: next best thing to being there

There was only room for 200 people at the Guildhall Service held for “The Most Famous Prince of Blessed Memory” in York on 26 March and those 200 only represented a fraction of Ricardians all over the world who wanted to be there.  If you weren’t able to attend or wish to relive your experience, one of our members, Karen Lewis, has put together a beautiful illustrated transcript: http://karenscraftingnook.com/York_Guildhall_Commemoration.pdf

Our first project!

I have just uploaded pictures from our first official project!  Close to 5,000 white roses were handmade for the display at the Richard III Commemoration service in York's Historic Guildhall.  Parts of the display will be available for purchase at a later date.  All money raised will be donated in King Richard III’s name to The Scoliosis Association of the UK (SAUK) and York Minster.  More information to follow, but for now enjoy the pictures!
