MARCH PROJECT

Our meeting in March will have another small project for those who want to participate.  Gail is going to teach us 'tea bag painting' on water colour paper.  These little projects are small and quick and easy to do.  A permanent pen is needed for the sketchy outline so look back before March and I will have the details for you. 

 

This little workshop is free to members and $5.00 to non members.  We will meet at 9.00 am and have a meeting at 10.00 am, followed by the workshop. 

 

If you don't want to participate in the workshop please still come along with your own piece you are working on.  Don't forget, morning and afternoon tea are supplied but it is good if you bring your own mug. 

 

Hope to see you then.

MARCH CRAFT SHOW

 

Late March was the Stitches and Craft Show at the Convention Centre.  Below is a picture of our stand being manned by Donna (at the teaching table), Judy (behind Deirdre), Deirdre at the table and Gillian, on the first day.  It was a very successful show for us and thank you to Gail and all her helpers for doing such a wonderful job.  The classes were a great success and so popular that they were all booked out and extra places had to be made to accommodate as many as was possible.
