With more time on our hands (even if it's simply not having to commute to work), many of us have taken to a spot more crafting. We've run 3 craft clubs on Zoom on the first Tuesday of each month, and we've also been doing crafting at home between meetings.
As well as craft, we've had an active WhatsApp group discussing everything from emoji games to sewing machine purchases, and much more besides. And we had our first virtual monthly meeting in May, where we had a quiz led by committee member Pam. Well done to Jayne for winning, and thanks to all who came and made it such a fun evening! We'll be having another virtual meeting in June, details to come.
Away from the monthly meetings, our crafty ladies have been busy! Nicky, who has recently moved out of London but continues to join us via Zoom, has has been hard at work during lockdown, making masks for friends and family, hearts for a local care home near her new home in Malvern, and scrubs from an old sheet for a local hospice!
Meanwhile our secretary Natalie has been working hard on her one-of-a-kind paint by numbers of her 15 year old border collie, Skye (pictured on the right):
And as well as that there has been paper crafting, sewing, jewellery making, and much more besides going on - here's just a selection!
