Important information from Yes @The Edge
With the cost of energy on the rise YES is offering a safe and cosy space throughout the winter months. Our heated main hall will be open for dropins all week with laptops/internet access available, hot food served daily and a kettle that’s never far away!
Sew Mondays
Six of us were sewing today, on this Sew Monday at Jill’s house. We were all working on our own projects: a Christmas angel, a swan and a needle case as well as some quilting panels, and a sewing kit. All very industrious, sociable and very enjoyable!

What’s On this week?
Please bring with you, in addition to your mug:
Glue - either: narrow double sided tape and scissors
Or: Pritt Stick and ten or twelve paper clips for each flower
Paper to make your flowers - For example: good quality wrapping paper, glossy magazine paper. Thick paper will make your flower harder to make!
To make one flower you need five squares, all the same size, in matching or contrasting colours. (Around 4 or 5 inches square). Bring your squares ready cut, or you can cut them on the day.
Beads or buttons to put in the centre of your flowers
There will be spares of everything if you arrive without!

Our Institute meeting today!
Our speaker gave us a fabulous insight into the life and paintings of Beryl Cooke. Such detail, such emotion and such a sense of humour! A great afternoon!
With our new start time of 2 o’clock, we were able to look at all of the activities and events on offer, as well as spend some social, catching up time, too. It was good to meet some of our new members as well as a couple of guests!
