One Last Time!

At our interim venue!
And on a really wet grey day it was nice to be warm and snug.

Thank you to the Bowls Club for making us welcome!

Lots going on as usual with a new member visiting .
Like to catch them young!






Maureen was embellishing a really pretty Christmas panel with beads and bits and then.....
Well you can guess what happened next!!
Nice view of Ena
How did those little beads travel so far!

Anyway -- back to business. Some little dove Christmas decorations also being embellished. 

All glitzy ready for the tree
 Lots of busy stitching on the Christmas Wall Hangings
They have promised a finish for next week
 Looks like Glenis has a bit more to do














And a bit of backward sewing here - but a suggestion from someone could save a lot of time here!

Don't undo it!!





Cute snowmen








 And Chris has put her very different version together. I love this one, very rustic.










And I do have a photo of one finished Christmas hanging but for some reason I can't upload it. I will try later - see if I can sneak it in!

 A little peek at a quilt that is being very beautifully hand quilted. Look forward to seeing that one.

Lots of tiny stitches


Ena put the finishing touches to her foundation pieced table centre
Lots of little Robins


And Ellen is making 50  75  Oh ! HUNDREDS of these little beauties for ...... oops! - can't tell you or it will spoil the surprise!


candy cane delight!

Several girls were finishing Advent calendars, some were panels but Yvonne is designing her own

Glam!
 Di is still beavering away making items for her daughter to sell on a charity stall at the hospital where her granddaughter was treated.

Pretty needle cases
Keep going Di!
 Such a good cause.

 Someone NOT getting on with her chores. And she is on countdown to a holiday soon too!
Hmmmm!
A Christmas tree hanging


 Next week we will be back at the Hensman Hall with a new boiler installed and it will also be our all day -  small projects for Christmas. And lots of ideas for things to do too. Thank you Jo, you have been busy!.













I think we have eight or nine items to choose from or do them all if you are a quick worker!


The Wednesday meeting will be at the Hensman ladies.

  2. I just love all of the wall hangings and look forward to seeing them all together. Must admit that we have some very talented ladies in the group and its no surprise if we catch them so young.
