C.W.I. Arts and Crafts

Members of the Tahunanui Country Women's Institute don't have time on their hands. Through the efforts of the institute's arts and crafts section, the ladies employ their leisure time making all kinds of articles from dolls to bathmats. We attended a monthly meeting of the branch recently to see members at work and the display of articles they had made.

Arranging the display: Mrs Alice Cotton (president), Mrs Nita Leahy, Mrs Nessy Jamieson (leader) and Mrs Effie Reeves.

Aileen Lewis helps Edna Lewis arrange hair on the doll she's making, while at

Colleen Humphries shows a dog she has made, to her mother, Sylvia Winter.

May Hand watches the progress of Flo Canning as she cuts out a pattern. Ailsa Wratten, making bath cleaners, and Marjorie Featherstone, making a bath mat, are the other two industrious ladies at bottom.
