Happy Birthday, Happy Birthday...

Happy Birthday dear Ena, Happy Birthday to you.  Ena is one of the 'youngest' at heart in our group, so it seemed only fair to celebrate with her....


Ena said this was the biggest cake she had cut since her wedding

Think we got the photo right... 
Congratulations Ena, hope we can share many many more of your birthdays.

Can you recognise who has made the self portrait?????

Hi Lynda.
I believe this little witch has been a long while in the making, but she is a rather posh witch and will be ready for Halloween this year.




There was some serious work going on.... Hazel has someone special in mind for this darling quilt.

 Heads down, cut carefully


Bit of Redwork....does that look like Christmas and snowmen creeping in????


and these have been made with love for a special little boy


 Little bit of 'special' machine embroidery.....well, you have to have something to add up don't you???

Ellen is making 14 or 15 of these for the local Rainbows group

6 down..... almost halfway
and Maureen is making 'pillowcase' dresses that will be sent to Africa...  yes, they are just made from pillowcases.

Witch watching on...Love that daisy

And last but not least, the ladies have been working on their 'all day' workshop projects...


Eileen made hers into a cushion

One Cushion, Two mats completed and one another mat almost finished 
Still some more work to do on some of these, but really proud to see so many being worked on... well done ladies.



Look forward to seeing you all next week.

  1. WOW!!!! What a fabulous day. Congratulations to Ena! Knowing all the mishaps she has made since I have known her, she has really done well to reach this age with everything intact!!!

    Whoever thought of making a dress out of a pillowcase? Have a little pile I may have a go at:))

    Love the Stained Glass pieces, they are really stunning. LOVE the cushion.
