A group of members drove over to Leyland in Lancashire on Saturday, 21 April to attend the North West Regional Day, hosted this year by the North West committee of which our own Chair, Ann Cornes, is a hard-working member.
At last year's Regional AGM attendees were asked to stitch a paisley shape in blue and lilac threads. These were sent away to be incorporated into the tail of a beautiful peacock, which delighted everyone and was much admired, with everyone identifying their own tail feather:
The Guild's Members' Challenge for 2017-18 was 'Underfoot'. There were over 80 entries including submissions by several of our members, and Christine Bardsley received a Highly Recommended certificate, which was presented to her at Regional Day.
There was a small display of work by Glossop members:
Nikki Parmenter took along her beautiful work of a peacock, which made a great contrast to the stitched hanging, and was much praised (apologies for the chairs in the background, but they were unavoidable):
So - a great day for Glossop!
Other news is that this year's Summer School is fully booked. At the meeting everyone voted on the theme for the Regional Rose Bowl in 2020 which is 'All you need is love'. Lots of time to produce your own work!
