The opening of the Hands Across the Border: A Journey Exhibition took place in the National Botanic Gardens, Glasnevin, Dublin last Wednesday 25th February. One of the South Midlands members, Margaret McEvoy, was asked to make a gift for President Mary McAleese as a thank you for opening the event. She made a beautiful patchwork bag and presented it to the President at the official opening. The Exhibition will now be hanging in The Flowerfields Centre, Portstewart, Co Derry from June 1st to 19th.
