Members were actually queuing outside the door, before it opened yesterday. I’m not sure if it was in anticipation of the food, the activity or both. Our activity was marbling on fabric using shaving foam as a support medium.
Eileen displays the sort of piece that we could attempt.
Maureen looks absorbed by the task
Margaret and Florence concentrate on their work
Phil, Pauline and Julie have no time to talk.
Ann and I dry our samples.
We then had a break for lunch. As usual there was an amazing range of foods and it was good to be able to take a break and chat to people. Almost half of our members were able to attend that day so the volume of chatter was quite high!!! After lunch we worked on some of our samples. Most of us chose to make something simple like a book mark or a bracelet and are saving our better pieces for reflection and inspiration, later. So thread, beads and sparkles were applied to our book marks as seen with Judith,.
And then as always at the end of a practical we gathered together to have a brief show and tell.
So another Jacobs feast came to an end. We left clutching our samples and thinking of how we were going to use them. I wish we could incorporate them into the Building and Architecture Competition at Manchester.
