Hope you have all had good holidays - the weather has not been great so maybe you have had more time to stitch?
I can't be at the next meeting as I have a family wedding to attend, but I have actually been busy sewing for it - a small fabric and paper book to be passed around at the reception for the guests to sign - based on the colours and flowers that have been chosen. Just hope they appreciate 'modern art embroidery' or it might be consigned to a drawer somewhere - let's hope not.
Anyway, to business. This is just to let you know that the new branch programme is now on our branch web page, listing all twelve month's meetings and four full day workshops - all looks very interesting.
The monthly colour raffle is a great tradition in the branch and this year is based on Coral Reefs and their Inhabitants - this month's subject being 'The Leafy Sea Dragon' whose colours are gold, red and white and our Chairmen (yes - there are 2 of them sharing the workload) have suggested that the winner of the basket of goodies, also be given a picture of this 'creature' so that they can perhaps design and make a piece of work using the fabrics and threads that have been donated.
I'm looking forward to seeing how many winners will do this - when and if you do please bring it to a meeting and I will put a picture on the blog. HAVE FUN!!!!!!!!!!!
A picture of this creature is shown below, though the colours are not too clear.
