Eight members met for a very enjoyable and productive craft group meeting.

We made several different Christmas cards, many from recycled items.

Janette showed us a simple, but effective technique of a stitched tree with beads.

Ann demonstrated making a box, also from old Christmas cards, and some members produced pretty boxes with motifs on the lids. These would be very useful for small gifts.

Once again we were inspired by the ideas and skill shown by members.

The Craft Group will now take a break. Our thanks go to Carole for running these sessions.

Kim is starting a Beginners and Intermediate Quilting Session on Friday 6th January 2023 at 2pm. Please contact us for more information and for the location. These are the quilts made by the last beginners group:
