Our next meeting is in June, when we will then break for the summer. Looking forward to seeing everyone there!
Our May meeting was a very eventful one. We had a lot to discuss about our club project for next year and several good ideas were brought forward. We will be choosing for definite in our June meeting. The highlight of the meeting however, came from Jennifer P who had been in contact with our Club president and came to the meeting with many, many miniature items and parts to make minis out of. This wonderful collection of goodies were her sister's who was a miniaturist for many years. Her sister is no longer able to do minis and is unable to keep them with her so she wanted them donated to other miniaturists. Our members had a wonderful time combing through these items and everyone found something they could use. In the end, everything was claimed except a couple of things and Jennifer was able to report to her sister that her treasures found new homes with people who would appreciate them.

We had a terrific show this year, thanks to all of the Club members who helped make it happen. This year was one of our best attended shows, and the Vendors had wonderful items for sale. It was very hard for me to stop myself from buying much, much more than I did! My kids always give me money for Mother's Day to spend at the show since they know I love it so much and this year, I treated myself to a 3-tiered plant stand in Maple by Victor Gossman. I will put it in a place of prominence among my other mini treasures.
Several door prizes were donated by the vendors, and all were claimed and appreciated by the lucky attendees who won them. Joanne Lovell from Hamilton won a beautiful chair from Victor Gossman. Photos of the door prizes are in the show gallery. Fergies put on a wonderful spread of drinks, snacks and lunch choices. It was terrific having food for sale again at the show for the first time since Covid. Our club projects received a lot of attention and compliments, along with all of the other wonderful items that Club members brought in to show. Many an awe-struck person came by to admire and discuss our work. It was a lot of fun speaking with the various attendees who came by. Above is a snapshot of the club projects completed by the members this year. To see more projects the members brought in, please see our Show Gallery page. |
