Today was a Member's Day and we were set a challenge by the Chair to do some stitching using only one stitch. We could choose our own or pull one out of a hat, which I think most of us did. There were fabrics and threads available if we needed them and we could either work to a 7inch square or something of our own choice. I pulled Sorbello stitch out of the hat which was something I have not done before. We also got under way with our travelling books. The books were distributed and we now have to cover them, make a bag for them to travel in and put our first pages in our own book. All to be done by the February meeting. We have set a topic of 'Circles' for our first pieces of work so I combined that with the Sorbello stitch to start the cover for my book.
I knew I would forget the names of the stitches that everyone was doing so I am not going to label these in case I am wrong.
I think everyone enjoyed today and quite a few found themselves trying stitches they had never used before.
