Card Making with Glen Hall

This week we had visiting artist Glen Hall come along and show us how to make beautiful cards with textiles. Glen's workshops were popular with the group members and many beautiful cards were created.

Each time we do a new activity I discover more about the talents of our group! Erica is a skilled and talented embroiderer she is also a talented card maker! 

Chris, Kelly and Ben
Ben joined us this week and made a card for is mum. It was great to have Ben's smiling face back amongst us. Hopefully he will join us again. 
Chris always prefers to stick to her painting.  This week she created a number of small works which she has already framed.


 
Erica brought along her embroidery and hand made cards for us to admire

Veronica is also an accomplished sewer as are Jean and Georgia. 
Allie comes along with her carer, she is a young lady with disabilities who loves bangles! Every week she agrees to paint the following week, but always manages to paint a bangle too! This week Allie created a card a beautifully colourful painting complete with sequins and of course another bangle!

It was a pleasure having Glen along. The group enjoyed her contribution very much and we all look forward to seeing her again.  Thank you Glen.
