We had an unofficial "Needlework Club", who all met up in the needlework room at break or lunch times - whenever the teacher was there really. She welcomed us all and was always happy to help with our projects. I have much to thank her for, as she encouraged me to learn so many new skills - including social skills! <br /><br />Love the scrap page. It's fun that it was inspired by your Pass the Book project. <br /><br />I had a look at Sandi's blog. She lives in Bedfordshire too - someone local! But I would have added her to my follow list anyway, as it's a great blog, with interesting posts.
