We closed 2023 with our Christmas party including a talk from Analiza Jones ‘Handbags from the Phillipines’. Analiza was both entertaining and interesting and some of her bags are pictured below. We also had our Christmas Competition, with many lovely entries. Congratulations to Hel who won the competition and to all the other entries, that were admired and enjoyed by everyone. We feasted on Christmas nibbles, savoury and sweet, provided by the committee. The gold raffle featured two truly beautiful bags, pictured below, and made by Rowan and Ruth.
The next meeting is the always popular Tale of Two Members, with Jayne and Kay, who will share with us their work and journey in stitching. The raffle colour is red please bring items to include if you can.
Happy new year to everyone looking forward to a creative 2024.
