We had a very sociable evening making items to sell at our Exhibition Which is happening on 28th June 2025. Among other things we made key rings, name badges, needle books. Pictures below just capture a little flavour of our work on the evening.
We also held the monthly raffle with yellow as this month’s colour. The bags are pictured below: the very vibrant large bag completed by Jayne and the delicate hand stitched bag completed by Hel. Meriel is also hosting a making day at her home on Friday 23rd May 2025, when some members will add to the items that will be on sale, including tote bags and cards. Members will also be hard at work at home completing other projects.
We have a busy time ahead and lots of members have already signed up to help at various points. Some of us will also meet on 31st May for a workshop. The next meeting will be on Monday 9th June, 2025 a talk from Hannah Glossop entitled Luminous Depths which sounds very intriguing. The raffle bag colour is Blue/Turquoise please bring contributions and don’t forget for members there is a lot more information about what is ahead and what part you can play on the notices sent out by Meriel.
