November meeting

 The November meeting was very well attended and we had to keep on putting out more chairs and tables. Thanks to Ruth and Yvonne for showing us their method of working to make folded flowers pictures. We all had a go with great success. 






Ruth also brought her cushion and showed some of us how she made the diamond shapes for the rosettes.







Programme update

 Please update your old blue programme for 4th November 2025 to show a talk by Tina Saunders “An Embroiderer’s Tale”. The newly printed programmes do show this. If you are on this post you will have realised that the blog spot is alsagercreativestitchers.blogspot.com and not .co.uk as shown on the front of the 2025 programme.
