Judith, Phoebe and the SWRI

Judith Baines, whose diaries and embroidery pieces are such a delight to Voice readers, has acquired a new companion in the form of Phoebe, a large, sweet-natured black Labrador dog, rescued from terrible conditions and now, as our picture shows, wonderfully happy. Labrador Rescue, a tiny but devoted outfit, did a great job in providing veterinary services and care to bring Phoebe round from the derelict condition in which she was discovered. If anyone is thinking of giving a home to a needy Labrador – one of the most friendly and amiable of breeds – contact www.homealabrador.net . They would be thrilled to hear from you.
Judith herself is busy as ever with her fine teaching and embroidery skills, this time helping SWRI members to create a competition entry on the Jubilee theme. A magnificent crown stands on an embroidered appliqué hanging and, together with a beautiful piece of beading, will have been judged by the time the August Voice goes public. Best of luck to Arran’s SWRI!
