In an evening of making, snacking and chat, our Christmas meeting was a sociable workshop led by our very own Elizabeth.
Suffolk Puffs were originally a rural way of using up cloth scraps: gathered circles of fabric stuffed with wool and stitched together to make warm quilts.
Ours were stuffed with French lavender and to package them as gifts, we learned a clever technique of making boxes from squares of paper. Everyone went home with lavender, paper, cloth – and pastries.
A big thank-you to Elizabeth for a joyful evening's making and to everyone who baked and brought refreshments.

There is no coffee morning this December, as the normal timing falls on Boxing Day; look out for our next coming up blogpost for details of our January coffee morning.
Wishing our members, friends and community a wonderful festive season, whether you're celebrating or hibernating, in a house-full or flying solo.
