Wednesday, 4th June.

We're truly fortunate to have a very comprehensive library on every craft discipline imaginable from which members are able to borrow books of their choice at no extra cost. It is very well (and compassionately, I might add as one who tends to be a slow returner!) run by Birte. New books are regularly added to the collection and a number of magazine subscriptions keep the library supplied with the latest editions.
On a Wednesday morning I love to meander around and see what everyone is doing or what they've brought along to share. Here are a few things which caught my eye.

Some exquisite felting.

An Embroidered teddy's tummy. He'll look like the magazine picture behind him when Sue B has completed him. I think she said he's the 8th one she's brought into the world!

Sue D's Butterfly postcard. Like the technique Sue!
The first of the 'All That Jazz' postcards by Jackie S. Wow!!

Our Anne knitting away in her favourite spot.

Busy hands making beautiful crochet work.

And sorting through the Threads of Habitat, trying to remember which bit we knitted so we can reclaim it to recycle, transform into something else maybe? Or just treasure as a personal memory of the great times had putting together that wonderful exhibition.


What a group of diversely talented people!
