THE first meeting of the year for Welland Art & Crafts Group was a practical evening based on Crochet with those members who could crochet teaching those who could not.

It is hoped that a blanket for a deserving charity will ensue from their endeavours.

The groups for needlecrafts and papercrafts are meeting on their regular days. The next Group Meeting is on Friday, February 13 at 7.30pm in Welland Parish Hall when Avril Pully's subject is Too good to eat- ie Sugar and Ceramic Flowers. Visitors are always welcome.
