Our group is for anyone interested in all sorts of textile creations, whether stitch (hand and machine embroidery) knitting, patchwork & quilting, felting, crochet, beadwork, etc, as well as paperarts such as card making, miniature books, drawing and painting, etc, etc. In fact, even if you don't create with textiles, we'd like to share what we do with you.
Come to one of our monthly meetings, where you can see and hear professional and keen amateurs talk about and show their creations. We meet on the third Monday of the month, in the Age Concern Room at the Community Centre, Meudon Avenue, Farnborough, Hants. Arrive between 7.15 pm and 7.45 for a drink and to meet people before the main meeting. Visitors pay £4.50 per meeting, members £2.
On March 19th Tanya Elliott will be showing us her re-creation of Mary Tudor's Wedding Dress, which was made for an exhibition at Winchester Cathedral 450 years after Mary married Philip of Spain there.
Then on Saturday March 24th, Tanya will lead us in a workshop to make a Regency reticule (a Jane Austen style handbag, to the un-historically minded!) Cost for the day (10 am - 4pm) will be £15 to members, £20 to non-members, plus £6 for a kit of all necessary materials. Interested parties indicate here and I will email you the details.
