Our last Workshop At Mullion Meadows

As I'm away from home and not able to join the crowds down the road in Stratford Upon Avon to celebrate Shakespeare's birthday and the 400th Anniversary of his death this fine day I thought I'd add a sprinkling of quotes from the Bards works to my post ............ can you spot how many Shakespeare play's are mentioned, some very loosely below.  If you can, leave a comment. A small token will be awaiting those who guess correctly.

I joined the Merry Wives of Mullion for a fabulously crafty day yesterday.   
'Margaret Margaret, where for art though Margaret'
Our project for the day was to construct and alter the event organiser kits and have them finished ready for class 2 of the the project in a couple of months.  After much a do about nothing we got started and 
after a  lot of double double toil and trouble our boxes were all built and painted.
What's in a name that which we call a Rose by any other name would smell as sweet 
'We were merry as the day is long' as we started to cut onto the gorgeous Voyage Beneath 'Can one desire too much of a good thing?'

What a great time we all had. Margaret thank you for inviting me down, ladies for coming along and I hope the shop move over the weekend goes well and look forward to seeing you at your new place when I'm down next.  
We're off for a wander on the beach in the sunshine so I"ll sign iff and look forward to catching up with you again soon.  Enjoy your day :-)

  14. Hi Clare, this has to be my favourite collection so far and I believe that I am going to make this project. I have counted eight references to the Bard, but there are only six plays as two plays are referred to twice. Hope you have a fab time away. Take care, Karen
