theWI Adderbury & District WI Meeting – Thursday 5th November 2015 – Christmas Crafts

Posted by on Nov 15, 2015 in Reflections

Thank you to all members for attending our November meeting and what an excellent evening we enjoyed together which I was particularly pleased to Chair,  giving Diane the opportunity of bringing her adorable puppy with her on this noisy fireworks night.

I enjoyed our interesting business section and delighted to introduce our guest speaker, Anny Sharman, and find out what we were going to make with Anny’s fabulous collection of fabric, ribbons, braids, buttons and sequins.  Anny’s film presentation was a tempting introduction to what was on offer.  We gathered about her collection and well prepared Christmas tree shapes, making our choices, and soon were happily engaged in producing a colourful Christmas decoration to take home.  Here’s a few photos to remind you of Anny’s visit and our endeavours….

My apologies for taking so long to add my reflections on our evening together but I’ve been tidying up my veggie garden…
