On Friday afternoon, eight Craft Group members met up at Carole’s.  The Craft Co-operative entry was looked at, with lovely work from Gina, Lindy and Janette.  The other ladies stuck wool hair and fabric nightgowns on clothes pegs to make the children of the Old Woman who lived in a shoe.  The entry so far is very colourful and original.   There is still some work to finish off, and one more meeting before the Group Show to achieve this.  It was, as usual, a very enjoyable afternoon.  Thank you to Carole for hosting. 

Rita and her team of bandage makers have continued to make bandage for Ukraine where they are sadly much needed.

.Workshops and demonstrations have been organised for those wishing to enter the food categories at the Group Show to help with our entries. A cuppa and tasting is a vital part of this!

We look forward to March and a busy month with the Brockenhurst Group Show and the Spring Council meeting amongst other activities!
