Vestment mending at St Mary Moorfields, 8th June

We had another pleasant (and productive) day at St Mary Moorfields on Saturday. A white chalice veil for use at Guild of St Clare retreats has been completed;  



fraying fabric has been reinforced and carefully patched on a Roman Purple dalmatic;



a lace protector has been stitched on to the exquisite goldwork chasuble belonging to Canon Mark Hackeson of East Anglia diocese which completes repairs to the set;


and work continues on a deep red velvet chasuble belonging to the Latin Mass Society.



Sometimes volunteers bring along repairs from their own parishes for advice and support on materials and approach, and I'm always very happy to help with these. On this occasion we hosted some splendid things from the vestry of the London Oratory. 



Our autumn dates will be announced shortly; we'll meet again in September.
