About Me

East Ayton, Scarborough, North Yorkshire
A group of ladies who enjoy traditional embroidery but who meet once a month to try some experimental work. We meet at Ayton Village Hall on the third Thursday in the month for a full day and again on the first Thursday for half a day. We currently have a waiting list of people who want to join us.

May Meeting and Exhibition

The meeting on the 16th was spent finishing off work for the exhibition and working out how it was all going to be hung.  We still had a few changes to make on the day but we started at 8.30am on the Saturday and we were ready for opening the doors by just gone 10 o'clock.  How's that for teamwork!
The two day exhibition went really well.  We had more visitors than ever and the repeat ones said how good it was to have such an exhibition in our area.  The sales table did really well and was looking quite depleted by the end of Sunday.  I am quickly searching through my work and making extra cards for sale at Picturesque Gallery, 8-10 St. John's Road, Scarborough, YO12 5ET, which starts on Saturday 1st June and runs to Saturday 29th June, 10am to 4pm Monday to Saturday.  The sales table is only available on Saturdays.  Thoughts are now turning to a new topic to work on and the side items that we do as well.
Here are a few photographs to whet your appetite to visit us in June.


Christine's 'Bomber Command' seagulls caused much amusement.
