Woolton's Finest
Woolton WI Craft & Produce Show Saturday 12 September 2015
As part of our celebrations for the WI centenary we held our first WI Show. What a lot of local talent! not just from Woolton but we were very pleased to have entries from ladies in our neighbouring Merseyside, WIs, Childwall, Halewood and the Liverbirds (Liverpool Central). Very well done to everyone who entered and to those who were placed or won prizes. Here is a selection of the fantastic works on show..........
Harrogate Centenary Fair - 5 September 2015
So after a convoluted route and rather interesting journey to Harrogate! 34 of us enjoyed the Centenary Fair. A real treat whether you are a 'crafter' or not and the exhibits from all of the WIs who exhibited were really inspiring. Of course some of us lingered a little longer around the 'Pimms teapot'!
Day out at Howarth and Boundary Mill 15 August 2015 |
Great day out enjoying the historical Bronte country visiting the Parsonage and Museum - as well as the odd coffee shop! Then for some bargain hunting on the way home at Boundary Mill.

Wongs WOW'd us on 26 June 2015
We were invited to take a look around Wongs jewellers in Liverpool city centre. What a fabulous afternoon. We were welcomed by Connor who was on hand to make sure the bucks fizz flowed and went very well with the lovely afternoon tea. We were given a great insight from Jenny into how a bespoke piece of jewellery is designed and made using the latest technology. We also had the opportunity to speak to the goldsmiths and look at some of the more traditional tools of their trade. Some absolutely gorgeous jewellery on display and a couple of us couldn't resist buying! Thanks to Mr and Mrs Wong, all the staff who were all so welcoming and informative and to Phil who organised it and was kind enough to invite us. Well worth a visit especially if you are looking for something a little different. Well done Wongs x
