At our next meeting, on the 21st May we will again be meeting on Zoom, at 7.45.
Our member, Lydia (graphic designer, creative director and illustrator) will be introducing us to drawing a flower for embroidery. Drawing a flower is a wonderful opportunity to spend time with it, and to notice something about it that we might not have seen.
After the workshop, we can pass it on, sending drawings to members who love to embroider. Or if we sew too, we can swap or develop our own pieces. So we’ll also be thinking about how to draw for something that’ll become a design.
Bring along a flower to draw, or if you’re stuck indoors with no flowers, find something floral, from photos to textiles. Drawing materials can be anything you have to hand, from a biro to full-on artist kits; from posh paper to scrap paper. No experience necessary and anything goes!
We’ll show what we’ve brought, Lydia will do a short demo, we’ll break to clap for carers and get drawing. There’ll be chat as we go and we can share our drawings at the end.

This coming Friday, 8th May as well as on 29th of May we will also be having virtual coffee mornings.
At the first Natasha will share a few photos and stories from her trip across Russia, Kyrgyzstan and Uzbekistan last year.

We will be sending invitation details for all these meetings to a shorter list of members and friends, who have expressed an interest in keeping in touch. If you are not a member and would like to be included on this list please let us know by replying to this email.
