    Hope you enjoy these. I had to show you the beautiful fans our ladies are making. basically 5 ladies get together on this, the person whose fan it is picks the colours and the subject she would like the fan to represent. The fans are double sided as well. I think they have turned out fantastic. I am being told they will be doing another soon as I want to try this out.
    the other work is by Jan the stained glass work and the quilt.

    Enjoy
