Everyone came armed with an old picture frame in April to up-cycle into 
something useful like a jewellery holder, a key safe or pinboard – there was no shortage of ideas and the frames of all different shapes and sizes were transformed by the end of the session.
In May on the day of the Royal wedding in keeping with the mood of the nation we made some colourful summer bunting from pretty floral fabrics. The bunting will be used to decorate the church for the Flower Festival on 8th and 9th June.
Looking ahead to the summer months – in June we will be using polystyrene blocks to imitate lino-cuts and design greetings cards. On Thursday 14th June, Dorcas will be participating in a craft drop-in at the Fraser Centre from 2pm-4pm as part of the Milngavie week activities.
In July we will be personalising a cotton cloth bag using felt, beads, buttons, braid and ribbons.
We meet every third Saturday from 11am-3pm and you are welcome to drop by and see what we are doing or better still come and participate. Tea/coffee and cake are provided. You can follow us on Facebook: DorcasCrafgroup@StAndrew’sG62.
