It was lovely to see everyone again after the Christmas break and catch up. As usual for our January meeting we had a stitch day and one of our fabulous Jacobs Join lunches, which are always delicious. A small sample:
Here we all are having a chat and a stitch:
Previously one of very talented members, Margaret, did an embroidery a week. She has now excelled herself and done one a day and presented it in a fabulous sketch book which is a joy to look at. Here is a little taster; thanks to Margaret for allowing us to feature it.

We want to encourage as many people as possible to take part in competitions and regional and national projects. Details can be found on the tab: Competitions and Exhibitions. Plans are underway for our next big community project which will involve another map! We are hoping to organise some community drop in sessions to help with the embroidery and we will be working with one of the local Brownie groups later. We continue to work with Milton House, Gargrave. We may well launch another travelling book project too! So plenty to keep us busy over the coming months.
