The evening began with a sprig of leaves. Not very interesting you may say but it  was Euonymus europaeus or the Spindle Tree.
A very apt beginning to a very enjoyable evening.

After the business of the evening, including our delegates report of the Cardiff Conference. We were introduced to our speakers - Julie and Serena. A couple of school mums that became friends and started a business.They Take a Scrap of Fabric and reuse, re-purpsose, reinvent, recycle vintage fabrics and felts into beautiful objects. As well as going around groups like ourselves giving talks and demonstrations.

Ideal projects for crafty people, for young mums in occupying their children during a school break or grandmothers having fun with the grandchildren.
Either way the evening was very interesting , informative and entertaining. 
As promised our 'nudies' turned into an array of lovely dressed pegs dolls.

Now pub quizzers what is the connection between Euonyomous and our meeting? The wood from this tree is used to make spindles and pegs.
