Hi All,

It's been a while but I haven't forgotten about y'all.

Again I am not going to write very much......because it's all about the work....here we go........

JENNIFER'S  WATERCOLOUR  CLASS

 

Anthony wanted to take a Zentangle Class........and why not!!!....... it's said that this form of art is Yoga for the brain...... We haven't done this for ages take a look at how he got on.

 

Another Craft Class we held was working with some old Stamp Magazines.

These mags are fabulous for decoupage...... so... that's what we did.

This one caught my eye....what a beautiful stamp!!

And the end product some really lovely decoupaged tiles...felt backed and varnished ready to use.

Another craft ( probably one of my favourites ) is working with ordinary kitchen foil.

It is so satisfying ending up with a product that really looks amazing.

 

FORGED  METAL

And yes we are still knitting......Nicola and her team have knitted so many squares.......her colour pallet is beautiful.....take a peek at these....

GET  KNITTING  TEAM

Nicola and her team made more than enough squares to complete a set of four cushions......They are all in this beautiful blend of ' blues ' .......scrumptious!!!

Oh my word......I nearly forgot.....Christianne had a Plant Sale.....looks as though they really enjoyed themselves.

MARILYN'S  JEWELLERY  CLASS

 

UKECAN...the Ukelele Group

 

And finally we took all our stuff to The Civic Centre where we showed off all our hard work.......

TOG...UkeCan & More Than Just A Choir......took part on the day.

Trying out the display at home the day before......

The Mayor with Gaye and Peter....I hear she was very impressed.

THE  POETRY  GROUP

How could we forget the wonderful Poetry Group who get together very quietly every week at TOG.......We displayed some of their own work in a book.

We also had a great time at Munch & Mingle......we had a very big turn out on Friday 7th May......22 people turned up......Please come along for a chat and a bite to eat with your friends.

That is an awful lot to soak in hope you all enjoyed seeing the display of work at The Civic Centre.......and listening to the Fa..a....a...ab ukulele group showing that they could really rock it!!!!..... Well Done Lisa and ' UkeCan ' ( we are recruiting new members now )......we will show you how to play the Uke.....it's simple as ABC....anyone can join this group.....like the Choir it is open to all Adults in the community.

Love to All

Patricia
