THE November meeting for members of Tedburn St Mary WI was held on Tuesday, November 4 at Tedburn St Mary Village Hall, with WI members and visitors in attendance.

Following the business section of the meeting, members enjoyed a fascinating presentation delivered by the speaker for the evening, Dawn Swancott, and her colleague Bobby from Tedburn Spinners and Knitters.

Demonstrations and an informative talk on wool and spinning was delivered, and members were able to try their hand at the process.

A huge thank you to Dawn and Bobby for sharing their knowledge and skills with us.

There was also the opportunity to take part in the monthly competitions, a raffle, and enjoy tea, coffee and biscuits.

Tedburn St Mary WI members will also participate in a visit to Bow Aquatic Garden Centre Garden Centre this month to share time together over lunch and have enjoyed an excellent Jane Austen talk and afternoon tea.

A Christmas chocolate making session and time spent together walking in our beautiful Devon environment are amongst the other activities recently on offer to members.

Future plans for Tedburn St Mary WI members include a Christmas Shopping trip to Bristol, the opportunity to participate in the Exeter Cathedral Carol Concert, and Christmas wreath making.
