October Meeting

Our October meeting was busy as ever. In the morning the two stitch clubs continued. Jacqueline's group were working hard on their crewel work pieces and learning new skills with expert guidance. Chris and Wendy's work is progressing beautifully, with lovely chain stitch and stem stitch.

Meanwhile Liz's group were adding to their wet-felting skills with colourful landscapes and pictorial pieces. Look at these glorious colours!

In the afternoon we held our annual AGM, after which there was some discussion and preparation work for the YES exhibition coming up in June 2025. There are lots of exciting plans for individual and group projects, but we're not going to reveal any of those here! 

The day was rounded off with scones and cakes, all home made by the committee.
