I'm a Bit Speechless

 I was noticeable by my absence at group this week, but family comes first (usually!!)

We had our All Day and this month and Shirley and Ena have come up trumps again with this lovely Prairie Point Christmas Wreath.

The ladies had done lots of prep work prior to the day and so could crack on with the project.

I will just leave you to view the pictures

 Good to see Jackie back - she wasn't doing the project but she had a coffee and a nice chat









It looks like there is another style of wreath being made in the room too!


Mrs Beal brought in cakes as a

Pencil rolls, gloves, hats and scarves amongst many other things that will make a small child Happy this Christmas

Same again next year???



I personally would like to add my thanks to all you lovely ladies who always come up trumps when asked to join in on things. 

 Including those that have knit or crochet green squares for the
 Craft Club Yarn Bomb  Christmas project
 
 They are constructing a 10Ft Knitted Christmas tree!!
 After it has been displayed, the squares will be sewn together into blankets and given to the homeless community

Welcome to The Season Of Goodwill 
(which seems to be the whole year with our girls!!)
