Twirling & whirling at Craft Club
March craft club was, once again, very well attended and we welcomed some new members. The craft this month was paper quilling and Morag led us through the basics before we all attempted to make a flower card. I think members were surprised how accessible this craft was and how quickly pleasing results revealed themselves. As we twirled and whirled we chatted, drank tea and ate cake and it was a very pleasant way to spend a morning. Each member was given a starter pack so that they could go away and keep quilling. Paper quilling is positively therapeutic and members thanked Morag for a lovely session. Next month it is working with spring flowers. If you would like to join us we would appreciate a confirmation email or a message via our facebook page. Flower sessions are expensive to offer so we need to be sure to get the right number of flowers. Many thanks. Email is craftsandcompanyarran@gmail.com
Next session is on Tuesday 10th April 10-12pm, Lesser Hall Whiting Bay £7.50 to include all materials and refreshments.
Easter Activity in Whiting Bay
Our Easter craft fayre, on Monday 2nd April, will be packed full of craft stalls selling their handmade items made on the island. We will also have our wonderful tea room with delicious home baking. New for 2018 is our ‘special events’ which run in the small hall at the back with the tea room. Each month we will be offering a different event. For our Easter fayre we are running creative drop-in workshops for children with the theme of spring.
It is also the culmination of our Disability Africa Friendship Quilt campaign so come and see what everyone has achieved and just where the money raised so far has gone.
A lovely way to spend a few hours….all very welcome…
