Hi

As a group leader I took the basics each week... i.e glue, scissors, inks, etc...

However I have been to another group where everyone takes their own stuff and its just time spent with likeminded people working on your own stuff.

For example, some people might choose to make garters, some pasties, some headwear etc...then one every few months, the group would all contribute £x and the leader bulk buys to allow everyone to make the same thing.

I used to provide paper copies of instructions etc..

I used to hire a venue, it cost me £15 for 2 hours... I did charge people to come to the group, just a nominal amount to cover the costs of the hire, tea, coffee, basic equipment etc.. never made any money but that was never my intention.

Where abouts in the Midlands are people from?
