The Town Council has 19 councillors (all volunteers) and meets on the first Tuesday of the month (with the exception of August in which there is no meeting). I did 4 of those 30 years agon and when they wore out I got an embroidery machine to make the next set.

Yesterday, I assembled the last of the finished bookmarks that the kids embroidered on felt, so they’re ready for them to take home. Cambourne is a vibrant community and it is our intention to enable more residents to play an active role in the community, through participation in community events and activities, volunteering, attendance at Town Council meetings, ideas for community development, or simply taking advantage of our excellent community and sports facilities within the villages.Eventually, I migrated to surface embroidery, teaching myself with whatever I could get my hands on.

Cambourne is the largest town within the South Cambridgeshire district, comprising the villages of Lower, Great, Upper and West Cambourne, with an approximate population of 12,200 people and 4,350 homes. I had square felt sheets from a Cricut project so I folded over my favorite green color meeting up corner to corner. com, the Sell on Etsy app, and the Etsy app, as well as the electricity that powers Etsy’s global offices and employees working remotely from home in the US.Personalised advertising may be considered a “sale” or “sharing” of information under California and other state privacy laws, and you may have a right to opt out.

Fall in love with reading all over again thanks to our completely handmade bookmark — including the ornamental tassel. This was my first attempt at embroidery since high school so when I say I have done embroidery before just know that it has been a minute! I learned to embroider when I was a kid, when everyone was really into cross stitch (remember the '80s?A suggestion for the cottage garden trims – embroider and tie round a jar of pickles/ jam/bottle of wine for a present, or make little bracelets for kids. Place the triangle on top of the square so that they are lined up correctly, using the image as a guide.
