The evening meeting on June 26th was full of chatter as it was spent doing a relaxing hand sewing technique.
We welcomed Dororthy Baird who showed us how to do Red Work and brought along lots of samples of her work to inspire us.
We heard about the history of the work and then had a chance to sew ourselves as Dorothy had bought us some small pre-marked designs of Christmas motives to try. 

Everybody hard at work on their sewing.

Dorothy's samples of the Red Work designs that we tried sewing for ourselves.
