From our membership secretary, Tina

 An important message….

At our cream tea next Wednesday (19th), please let us all wear our name badges. Mary H has made badges for our newest members, and it would be nice to get to know their names, and for them to learn a few of ours.

Don’t be shy….have a go!

Taking part is what makes everything much more fun! Everyone can enter something in our Margaret Seaward Exhibition in October! 

Remember that we are all the judges! Each one of us has three votes (in the shape of three buttons!) to award to which ever of the entries we choose! (Simply place your button inside the envelope next to the entry of your own, personal choice). No strict rules to follow, no famous artist to impress and certainly not your needlework teacher from school! Fun, friendly and fabulous!  

Make it yourself, this year, especially for our October WI meeting! 

A photo, a flower arrangement, a card, a poem, a collection of objects, painting, embroidery, pyrography, soap sculpture, crochet, knitting, a song, a tai chi pose, a dance (your rendition of Joyce Grenfell’s ‘Stately as a galleon…)….. anything you set you mind to! 

Here are some of our “Gold” entries when we celebrated our 50th anniversary:-

What’s on? And another year’s Margaret Seaward Exhibition entries for your perusal!

 The theme was ‘Yesterday’ and, as you can see, there were some very beautiful and creative entries!

Many thanks
