Here we are Ladies back on line again after all the trials of a house move and many other domestic disturbances.
We had our opening meeting on the 17th December after our summer break
on the 24th we visited Irish Linen Center in Lisburn to see the Quaker Tapestry.

My photos have ended up out in the ether somewhere along with those of the next meeting which was a talk by Lois Malone about her relative who traveled to New York to work for Singer Sewing machines.
Jessie Gillies Trainer Maxwell a woman ahead of her time . She worked on Swiss Embroider machines.
On the 15th we had a pot luck lunch with a talk from Rosana. We have supported her charity
the Uganda Water and House Build Project
