Thursday Group
Merrilyn’s Flowers, a Needleworker’s Companion Bag.
Tuesday 7th,14th and 21st July
This class was so popular with the Saturday Ladies that the Thursday group would now like to make their own Companion Bag.
Students will select the flowers they want to stitch from An Encyclopedia of Wool Embroidery Book and use threads from their own stash. Great fun, great flexibility with great results.

Weekly Class
Every Monday afternoon a group of enthusiastic ladies meet to stitch and learn about embroidery.
This class started as a ‘learn embroidery stitches’ class and three years later we are all still learning (including the teacher). Threaded into a class of friendship and chatter the students work on projects of their own choice, stitching original freestyle embroidery, hardanger, crewel and counted needlepoint.
Finished items completed by the class have included dolls blankets, carry bag, foot stools, framed pieces, cushions/pillows, lids of trinket boxes, small table cloths and needle books.
