We meet on the third Friday in each month from September to December
and from February to July.
All meetings take place at St. Aidans Hall, except for our November
Open Meeting which is held at Tweedmouth Middle School.
Established in 1959 our Club celebrated its Golden Anniversary with
a special lunch and demonstration entitled "Those Golden Moments"
by Sue Davies from Staffordshire.
The celebration was held at Marshall Meadows Country House Hotel
on 17th May 2009.
Throughout the year our program provides expert flower arranging and
entertainment by National and Area demonstrators, with all arrangements
raffled at the end of a demonstration and new members and visitors are
always welcome.
Outings and special events take place throughout the flower club year
and the photographs below are of a set of four seed collages designed
and made by club members as part of a very successful Flower Festival
staged in July 2008 for the Golden Age of Northumbria.
St. Matthew, St. Mark, St. Luke and St. John
The collages took 656 hours to complete and contain 35 different types
of seeds and grains and became a real talking point at the Festival.
The collages are now being framed in order to preserve this work for
the future and we have produced packs of 8 notelets depicting the collages.
Each pack contains 2 of each of the 4 designs and would make an ideal
small gift.
Packs are available at £4 plus p&p.
