April and our AGM

April is when we hold our AGM. We don't have to, but we like to; we feel it's good practice to formally review the group, how it's set up and run, it's finances, it's programme etc, and it doesn't take too long if your circulate the paperwork ahead of the meeting for everyone to digest and come prepared with their comments and feedback.

We've already seen changes to the programme for 2015, the main ones being the introduction of mini-tutorials during our monthly meetings and the additional one-day workshops that we're holding bi-monthly.

The good news is that we feel the maximum membership can be increased to 30. The parking is much better now that the car park has been resurfaced so neater parking is now achievable as the giant pot-holes are no longer. So, there should befive happy ladies today who have received an email offering them a place in the group.

The mini-tutorial "crochet - getting started' took place yesterday very ably led by Jenny, Tina and Pam.


One cot quilt also got basted - very useful being able to use the village hall tables to make a surface large enough to do this.

Next month is a show-and-tell month so we should see some of these pieces finished.
