** Christmas Tree festival **

Hello there - Last weekend was the Christmas Tree festival at Brighstone on the Isle of Wight, so some of our knit n natter ladies set off with their crochet baubles, stars and snowflakes to decorate our tree as part of the festival.  Our tree was to be in Mottistone church - the next village on to Brighstone.

 




 
 
 
 
 
Ta-dah - here is our lovely crocheted covered tree with
65 baubles, stars and snowflakes
 
 
12 year old Holly who came along to one of our sessions made these
3 beauties - they are fabulous and she even added a bow to one of them!!
 
 
We wandered around the church looking at the other trees
this one is decorated with cup cake cases
 
 
decorated with lego
 
 
Stanley family tree
 
 
The Nativity
 
 
I love church windows
 
 
A plaque on the wall for David Peter Seely
Lord Lieutenant of the Isle of Wight 1986-1995
 
 
 
Lovely carvings
 
 
this little fella was just by the door
 
 
Off we went down the road to Brighstone for Coral to do her tree for
St George's Special School
 

 
 
There was a lace tree and these three exquisite ornaments were on there
 

We spotted this lovely handmade tapestry on the wall which particularly caught our eye

 
Because Barbara is the wife of our resident photographer at our Medina parkrun
each week and it was lovely to see that Barbara was involved with this lovely tapestry
 
 
One last look back as we leave
 
Thanks for popping by

We have collected our tree, baubles, stars and snowflakes and we have
a plan to do something with them this weekend!!
