Hi again folks, here are some photos from a class we had in the shop learning to make ruched roses from ribbons. The ladies produced some lovely roses using different weights of ribbons.

The photos below are from a social evening I hosted at Islesburgh Community Centre. Two ladies from the "Shetland to Romania Project" gave an illuminating talk about their trip and highlighted some of the problems the orphans face and what a change their trip had made to the lives of these amazing children. It was quite moving.

There was also a quiz and a raffle.
Tony our Quiz Master above is smiling because he knew all the answers!!!

Ladies from the winning team. Check out those smiles!!!

I was really disappointed we ran out of time for the "show and tell" as the ladies had brought some truly wonderful projects for us to see.

I thoroughly enjoyed the evening and I hope the ladies who came did too.

This is me relaxing with a cuppa at home afterwards.
