Yesterday was our first Sew Wot get-together of the year, and what a busy old time it was. I was the hoste4ss and welcomed everyone to our home. Gemma had a little look around then quietly did her own thing, away from the hustle and bustle. There was plenty of chatter as we all caught up with each other's news, and such a lot of show and tell. Several of our ladies had recently had entries in the A & P Show Home Crafts category, and come away with awards. Carol won a prize with her knitted doll, and Helen won awards for several of her entries.

As well as all the excitement of the fair, we brought along our Sew Wot Challenge items. Late last year we took our choice from a selection of doilies with the instructions to make something. Most of the somethings came back, and what a variety there was. Jude had crocheted around the edge of her large doily and made a mat for her vintage tea trolly. Carol had made a house runner, incorporating her doily into one of the houses.

Congratulations to the ladies who exhibited their projects in the fair. I’m impressed with the finished objects in the doily challenge. Well done Sew Wots!
What a fantastic show and tell.
Congratulations to the ladies for wins at the show.
Lovely, knitted doll and cute baby clothes.
You all had great idea for your challenge.
What a fabulous spread for morning tea.
you certainly have the English tradition of tea and cakes - or do you serve coffee too - is tea more popular than coffee in your part of the country I heard that coffee is becoming very popular in England now
This is really fun!
What a clever group of ladies you are. I love how the doiley projects are so varied. Your baking looks rather yummy
Some lovely work there. All those cakes look good.
Congrats to all who won a prize. I really love the knitted doll and the embroidery work is outstanding.
