To further explain the crafts that the fishermen of the village needed access to we are presently building a display showing the sailmaker's art. A generous donation of an old cotton sail with hand worked corners and edges will underpin the display with a selection of sail making tools overlaid on top. We have some needles but are looking for a sailmaker's palm if you have one to spare - the older and gnarled the better.
