Our November meeting was entitled Fraying Like a Flower, so-called because we were joined by Jade Smith to teach us how to make raggy flowers for use as brooches, hair clips etc.
Here is Jade in the middle. She is a researcher at Huddersfield University looking at the elationship women have with their clothes. Many of our Roses will be taking part by completing wardrobe audits - scary!
Here are some of the girls making their flowers. Very easy to do - scraps of old fabric, a square of hessian and a poking device!
There was much other jollity as well, with Gloria working the raffle.
Such talents among us!
Just a few more weeks now until our Christmas party and then we say farewell to 2011 and hello to 2012.
