This group started when a very small group of
ladies met to
discuss their work, exchange patterns and generally pass on helpful
tips. There
are now 8 regular members who meet on Thursday mornings about twice a month.
The group has completed a tapestry banner, composed of
squares depicting the diverse groups of High Lane U3A and a calendar
represented by flowers appropriate to each month.
We recently raffled a kitchen sampler which we had received in an
unfinished state from the Cancer Research shop in Marple and which
Margaret McDermott completed. The sampler
was won by Margaret McCleod. The proceeds of the raffle - £66.50
- were donated to Cancer Research.
We have had quite a lot of
orders for special anniversary cards.
As well as meeting regularly at each others' houses we enjoy having
outings e.g. to Bakewell to the Embroidery shop there and to the
Handicrafts Exhibition at G-Mex.
