Paula Steer from https://lilywarnewool.co.uk/ came to tell us all about the story of her family and her flock. She is truly an inspiring woman! We learned plenty about rams, ewes, lambs and how it all happens! It was a fabulous talk, entertaining, informative and lots of fun.
Our treasurer, Tina, gave us the news that we have our quota of 60 members, and she has started a waiting list!
We gathered ideas for workshops, how to celebrate our 50th birthday next year and a request for every member to help design a logo for Brixham WI. An image or words…. Please bring your suggestions to our next meeting, in October, so that we can all decide what we feel represents us.
In November we have our Group meeting, Monday 1st with a speaker telling us all about her experiences “Upstairs Downstairs”. We usually have a competition or a theme for this meeting - does anyone have any ideas?
Also in November is our Exhibition for the Margaret Seaward Challenge. The theme is “These are a few of my favourite things” and any type of item created by you for the occasion will be very welcome. Flower arrangement, photo, poem, quilling, tatting, sewing, painting, mosaic, knitting, paper folding, baking…. The world is your oyster! Surprise us! We need lots of entries! Have a go! Every item will be appreciated and admired.
We all did our very best to adhere to COVID safe guidelines - thank you all for coming along and thank you to the many, many members who helped it all run so smoothly! The room looked lovely, with the flowers, the tablecloths and all of those smiling, happy faces!
