PATCHWORK PALS

Easter came early for the Friday Pals - our usual meet would have been on Good Friday, so this was moved to the following Friday, but the hall had been double booked.  No worries - just means we got two meetings in March - but sadly we now won’t meet until May!   But because of the date change, it meant we had some lovely visitors.  Don’t forget that you can visit another group if you can’t make your usual meet up - just remember to pay Sarah your £4!   Despite saying she’d never make another one, Sandy was working on (another) hexagonal quilt as she had lots of scraps to use up. Marillyn was crocheting a little jumper - not sure who the lucky recipient will be. Juliet was knitting a baby cardigan for the premature baby unit. Our visitor Maureen brought along another friend - this sparkly little owl.  She was also working on these cute panels which will be joined together for a children’s quilt. Maureen also showed the group this spectacular “Under the Sea” raw ...

There was a small group at the WI hall this morning, although we were all delighted to see Lyn return! Cheers and applause all round! Sharon showed off this handsome fellow! Joy was able to present this beautiful couple; plans may have been laid for Advent stitching! Just a couple of announcements -  On Friday 3  July, we will be holding a summer picnic themed around Strawberries - making some is also part of the plan.   There was also some discussion about a workshop/meeting in the Autumn to make Christmas ornaments/objects.   Next Meeting for the Friday group will be Friday 27  March.
