At a well attended September meeting of Natland & Oxenholme W.I., President Marion Thornton congratulated all members who had individually and co-operatively entered items of crafts and produce in the County show. The club was awarded the Doreen Galbraith Salver for their interpretation of 'A Walk on the Wild side'.
Marion highlighted forthcoming events and courses in the County Newsletter and urged members to support them.
Guest speaker Liz Mathews gave a lively account of her numerous trips to northern India, seeking out and learning from artisans their skills in making woven silk textiles and embroideries. The pieces she brought made an exotic display of colour and workmanship.
Jean Clement and Sylvia Shaw were joint winners of the monthly competition.
Next meeting on October 16th in the Village Hall Natland, at 7.30pm.
The speaker is Trevor Hughes whose subject will be Kendal Treasures.
