What a great Ladies’ Day doing wool painting course with the women from Blesma, The Limbless Veterans charity, Northern Ireland. What a great way to commemorate Remembrance day. 

We had a great Ladies’ Day with the women from Blesma, The Limbless Veterans charity, Northern Ireland. I feel honoured to have delivered the ‘Poppy Field’ wool painting workshop via zoom, dedicated to Remembrance Day. I tried to make it a very special day. Thank you very much to Fiona who organised this event! It was a great pleasure working with these lovely ladies and teaching them a new skill. The age range was 86 years old to 10 years old and I am so happy with their lovely work! Well done , ladies! These are the beautiful wool painting that they made.
