Ute, Sue and Lesley attended the Christmas Taster Day – no food in sight!               Christmas Decorations were on the menu. We, together with about 50 ladies from West Sussex W.I.’s, tried our hand at Paper Flowers, Beaded Snowflakes, Fabric Decorations and Folded Fabric Cones.

Beads that scatter when you only want one. Beads that won’t stay on the wire and then there’s the glue! Paper flowers bloomed in decorative jars, fabric decorations requiring a degree in Origami and fabric cones in many hues. We all managed to produce recognisable items to take home.

It was good to meet up with members from other W.I.’s, exchange ideas and generally chat, although at times silence descended as concentration levels rose. A most enjoyable day.

Our thanks to Lesley for this report of the latest Federation activity.
