The walkers had a lovely time, walking around the harbour - perhaps to the Café at Fishcombe Cove?
Annie has sent me a photo of her rather spectacular sunflower. Mine were eaten by slugs, very early on, so I am very impressed indeed with this one:
Barbara L and Beryl have been making beautiful cards; Barbara is really planning ahead….
Is anyone up for this? Barbara L and Beryl are already looking at the patterns they have downloaded! Mary C has a bag of wool which was donated to us a while back…..
Brixham WI does #canarycraftivism! We have our canaries ready to send off into the world, asking everyone to take action on the climate crisis. Tina Hemmings Karl Lawrence Beryl Bradford Mary Williams Susan Brooker Mary Constance And we had a bit of a laugh!
What a day it was yesterday! Perfect to sit down and follow a watercolour painting tutorial! Here is my attempt!
We had rather a blustery walk along the breakwater today - holding on to everything! Then, the four of us had a very sociable time over a coffee! I forgot to take a photo until I was on my way home!
Lovely! Thank you for your company!
Next week is looking quite full for you active and interested Brixham WI members!
Lots of folk comment on the lovely cards made by some of our members - here is a course just for you!
There are loads more, too, covering all sorts of topics! Take a look and go for it!
Here is Tina’s very splendid summer dressing gown, made for her husband’s birthday. The first garment she has made since 1980s. I think it may be the start of things…..
Beryl prefers card making to housework! Who wouldn’t?
Barbara L…has knitted a gorgeous cardigan with very pretty buttons!
They have promised to run some card making sessions for us! (Quite a few, I am hoping!)
Proved to be an excellent venue for the coffee and chat this morning! Another one has been booked for 13th July! Don’t miss out!
These are gorgeous, by Carolyn and Barbara L
What was really useful about the session with Lynn, the Quirky Bird, was that she taught us two different techniques to create the butterflies. With this beautiful weather it will be just the thing to sit in the garden, practising.
We have just spent a relaxing, restful and most enjoyable evening with Lynn, the watercolour artist patiently showing us all how to paint two butterflies. Barbara L, Carolyn, Mary W and Carol P were all there, too - and my daughter who is staying with us at the moment! Here are our efforts - hoping to see some more soon.
Look for Quirky Bird Watercolours by Lynn on YouTube or on Facebook. There are loads of ‘paint along’ videos.
What is on this week for you lovely Brixham WI members?
The afternoon at Cayman Golf was enjoyed by 11 of our members! It sounds as if a lot of fun was had by all, ending up with an ice cream or a cup of tea and home before the rain started! They were too busy to take any photos!
Did they choose next week’s day? If not, how about Wednesday 16th at 2pm, Man and Boy statue?
Wow would you look at these cards! I think there may be plans afoot to make one of these at a craft session….
