June Meeting

Although members are now starting to go on holiday etc. we still had a good attendance today.

A few of the quilted cushions from the workshop two weeks ago were on show but not all of them are finished yet.

Cath's is missing because she was sitting on it.  The day was so popular that another is planned for November and we are hoping to make a christmas table runner.  Everyone thanked Ann and Jackie for organising and running the days.

This afternoon we had Wyn Ingham helping us to make mini victorian needlecases which were lovely.  Everyone enjoyed the afternoon and most people took home a finished needlecase.  Some bought extra kits to make more, they were so pleased with their first ones. 
 
Here are some action shots of people working on their needlecases





And here is a selection of the finished ones.  Not everyone put theirs on the table but you can see the huge variety of kits that Wyn put together for us, it mus have taken her ages and our thanks go out to her.

Next month our own Barbara Douglas will be talking about 'Colour and Design for Weaving' and Barbara is an excellent weaver and some of her fabrics are superb.  We welcome visitors and I would recommend this talk if you are interested in weaving.

Below is a taster of what we will be doing next month on our 'Make and Take' session.
