Six of us once again had a very enjoyable day at the Regan Centre although the weather wasn't it's usual sunny self. We had two very entertaining and informative talks one by George Hook, who is the last man in Birmingham to make mother of pearl buttons, and one by Lucy Adlington on the Great War Fashions. The standard of the competition entries was as high as ever and there were some really lovely pieces on display. Next years topic for the two competitions will be 'Maps' and the flower for the Maggie Judges competition will start with the letter 'E'.
I had a very good day as I won one of the raffle bags. Kindly put together by the Sheffield Branch, I don't think they could have got another item in it. It is now my challenge to produce a piece of work using as many of the items as possible.
This is a photograph of the bag I won with all the items that were in it. Thank you very much Sheffield Branch.
It was lovely to have time to catch up on Saturday. Glad to see everyone is still very busy creating wonderful work.
