Coffee and Craft

Following the success of our one-off crafting session to make stars for our Advent calendar before Christmas, lots of you asked for this to become a regular feature. So we would like to invite you to start the new year by exploring setting up a more regular crafting group. In this first session we will discuss the following while we craft:

1. How often the group might run
2. Dates and times
3. The general format of the sessions
4. A roster for setting up, serving refreshments and clearing up afterwards
5. Which crafts we might include  and who might lead/demonstrate them
6. Resources
7. Whether we should provide other activities such as news papers, puzzle books etc for those who want to come along and be sociable but don't want to craft 
8. Whether we should ask for a small fee or minimum suggested donation to cover costs

This will be a very relaxed discussion. Bring along your own crafts or join in with some of ours such as gift tag making and knitting as we enjoy a cuppa and plan our future as a group. There will be no charge on this first occasion.
