After the necessary business session in the morning and a bring-and-share lunch (always enjoyable!), we got down to the serious stuff of rummaging through our bags of fabrics, fibres and wool, to make a start on creating our 'Autumn' panels.
We had made the frames at the spring members' day, so now for the fun and making a start on the four panels to go in them - one for each season.
Our programme secretaries, Gill and Lucy, had set up a beautiful "nature" table to provide some inspiration, and then gave us some guidance on needle felting a background and making a leather-look material (brown paper, paint, PVA glue, tissue paper) from which to cut out leaf shapes.
No doubt about it, this was play time for grown-ups!
Looking forward to seeing the finished panels ...
