At their March meeting Calder Vale WI members discovered that spring, summer, autumn and winter are not just the names of the seasons. The diverse colours  we wear can be divided into the four groups too  - each corresponding to a season. It was an interesting idea demonstrated by the speaker.

Firstly though, President Brenda Price welcomed members from  Garstang Cherestang, Claughton and Kirkland WIs.  Our guest speaker Penny Elger, whose topic was to ‘Identify colours and styles that suit you best’, had an array of swatches of many tones and shades. She used these to good effect on her volunteers proving how different colours affect a complexion and indeed a whole look . It was intriguing for other members to consider which shades,under spring, summer, autumn or winter, would bring out their best.   Val Carroll thanked Penny for a most interesting talk.

The competition for a pretty scarf was won by Maria Rodriguez.
