Craft and Chat mornings continue every Tuesday, providing space and time for our women residents away from the everyday concerns.
There’s always much sharing and laughter, and lots of good stories. One recent Tuesday, a special card making session was presented, where those who wished had a go at making their very own cards.
The session came about because Lauraine attends a monthly card making gathering of former neighbours and friends, and she introduced us to the beautiful Paula who conducted our workshop.
Paula brought along all the materials and clever gadgets needed to make our cards.
This was a very pleasant, easy-going workshop, even for those who felt quite inadequate in the creative arena! And the end products were just beautiful. It is hoped that sometime in the future an extended card-making workshop will be provided for anyone who is interested.
As Margaret observed of the craft morning session, it was lovely that even when the workshop had finished, the women simply stayed on and chatted.
It is real proof, if any was needed, that it is very much about the Chat and not just the Craft. So, if any of you ladies out there would like to come along, don’t feel in any way intimidated by the “craft” aspect!
