APRIL NEWS

A bit late this month - doesn't the time fly. Hope you all had a good Easter in spite of the wet weather. The garden is still too dry so apologies if the rain prayers work. ( I did ask for overnight rain!)

There are two extra special events this month. We are delighted that Ruth Smith is returning for our evening talk this Monday 16th, to tell us more about the textiles of the Miao people of China. Perhaps those of us who made the Folded Secrets booklets at her workshop last year would like to bring them along.

On 21st Margaret is running her Fusing Fabric workshop using fine tipped soldering irons and machine embroidery. The technique, which Margaret perfected, gives amazing results unlike any other, so why not try it. Joy will be taking final payments on Monday.
Hope to see you there.
[Last minute news - Marlborough & District Branch is holding a 2-day workshop 'Drawing for the Terrified' with Richard Box on Mon 21st & Tues 22nd May. Cost £50. Booking details at the Monday meeting or contact our branch.]
