Our Members

Hello there,

Welcome back to Bake, Natter and Roll, the Farnham WI blog!

As a shiny new WI we are often asked about our members - everyone wants to know what they're like, what type of ladies have joined us.

When we set up Bake, Natter and Roll we really didn't know how many people would be interested in joining us or what they would be like. Our motto is that we're for the young and young at heart and our programme includes a mix of traditional activities and more modern pursuits - what impact this would have on membership we didn't know!

However, we are incredibly lucky as we are already at capacity with 80 members and another 40 ladies on our waiting list! And probably the best way to describe us is like a big bag of Liquorice Allsorts - we have members of all ages young and old and from all backgrounds! The one thing we can say about our members is that they are a talented bunch!

From baking to crafting, from jewellery making to singing and painting - we are discovering that we have lots of skills  and talents in the group! And today we thought we'd share some of our recent makes and bakes.....


Alex's homemade afternoon tea spread
-created when teaching a friend to bake...


Jen's wall painting, 
created on a playroom wall.....



Emma's homemade Welsh cakes, 
made on St David's Day.....


Eve's necklace, 
which has been submitted to the Eileen Bowler competition.....



 Kate's patchwork cushion...


Rachel and Helen's acoustic group - 
Little Iris.....



Lydia's scrummy cakes - 
a triple layer peanut butter cake a sunken Nutella cake....


Olivia's indoor Igloo....


Shauneen's fabulous masks.....


And this is just a small selection of the items that have been shared on our Facebook page recently! It's brilliant to be part of a community of ladies who are so diverse in their skills and happy to share their talents with the group.

Pop back over the coming months as we share more of our makes and bakes!

Thank you for popping by today,

Bake, Natter and Roll Committee
