Sunday 8 December - The Christmas Crop

We will have a number of small projects to choose from.  Which include little parcels to hang on the tree, a larger hanging decoration, advent calender and little packages to put sweets in.  The small parcels and gift packages can be cut out of 1 sheet of 12 x 12 paper or thin card (with careful cutting a number of them out of 1 sheet), the larger hanging decoration should come out of 1 sheet of double sided 12 x12 but a second sheet might be useful if you curl your cones a bit tight!, the advent calender will need embellishments, scraps of paper etc.

As it is our christmas crop there will also be a "bran" tub.  If you wish to take part then bring along a parcel to put in the tub.  Parcel contents should be craft things to the value of between £5.00 to £7.00.

There will be a buffet lunch which will include quiche, suasage rolls, fairy cakes, bits on sticks, dips, crisps, fruit pavlova, cheese & pickle and cake. If you are coming and would like to contribute to the lunch then please feel free to bring something along.

With music, games, food and crafts why would you not want to come along.

and finally check out our dates for next year.  We are currently not planning a 12 Hour Crop in October instead we are going for a spring 12 Hour Crop so you had better keep Saturday 31 May clear in your diary.

See you on Sunday 8th at 10am in the Isabella Centre in Blyth

There will be one class and 2 kits for you to do with as you wish.  
There will be supplied some ideas for the kits if you wish to follow them.  
Photos used are normal 6 x 4 inches or slightly larger ones.
 
The normal crop equipment, cutters and dies etc will be available for use.

Bring a packed lunch for lunchtime but if you forget there is a Co-Op round the corner.  For supper we will be sending out for a takeaway again.  Tea and coffee will be available all day and there may be the odd biscuit or chocolate for those who feel the need.
