National Day of Stitch
Despite some dreadful weather, today has been very successful and a number of people have been very interested in Glossop EG and the work we do. Chris Harris represented the Guild at Lymefield Garden Centre in Broadbottom where she was approached by a number of former and current members as well as several ladies who are considering joining us.
Here, Chris is showing one of the Travelling Books to Jan Ambler who was one of the founding members of the branch in 2004.
Ann Cornes and Christine Bardsley were also representing us at Portland Basin Museum in Ashton-under-Lyne. There was plenty of interest from all age groups.
Ann and Christine took along some beautiful work to display, from simple line stitches to kantha work and complex drawn thread work which helped to prompt questions from the visitors.
A very worthwhile and stimulating day, and a huge thank you to all those who willingly gave their time.
Congratulations to you all on what was obviously was a very successful day at both venues.
