World Champion!

Katie Sayle, Mrs Dorothy Oliver (Champion), Mrs Sara Elliott and Urzsula Uroda

Mrs Dorothy Oliver - World Champion!

After all the public votes were counted we presented prizes to all the winners of our First World Championship Knitted or Crocheted Fairycake Competition.

Winners of the Family Library heat were Mrs Sara Elliott and Urzsula Uroda with a special prize going to Mrs Sandra Herring for her contribution to the event - Mrs Herring organises a lunchtime sewing club at Fairfield School and encouraged some of the pupils to make fairycakes for our competition.

The overall winners of the competition were Champion Mrs Oliver, Junior Winner Katie Sayle and Runner Up Lorna MacKellor.

We had a lovely presentation with tea and scrumptious cakes provided Simply Delicious and we'd like to extend more thanks to all the guests who made the effort to attend.
