Gathering post-lockdown to share craft...

Our small group gathered on Thursday
to celebrate our craft and ourselves!

We all coped with our New Zealand lockdown
to combat the disease Covid-19,
 and were thankful we had 'stashes' of fibre at home
to carry on creating....

We had a great morning catching up and planning for the future,
next month we will learn about Braids and Cords - bring some yarn to practise with.
and August will be Felting... details  to come.

Happy crafting...

Our day of Slow Clothing....

we had a wonderful day with Jane Milburn - Sustainability Consultant.

This is her 10 ways we all can help....

We all learnt a lot from Jane, through her Talk, her examples and by doing some ourselves.
I  now have a skirt that is wearable, instead of it hanging in the wardrobe.

Here is a selection of photos from the day...

Slow Clothing - International Tutor for Balclutha...

Yes, that's right...we have the opportunity to learn and be inspired
by Jane Milburn of Brisbane.  She will be here very soon - Sunday August 25th.

Please have a rummage through your wardrobes for your own loved clothing
that you can bring and learn how to "slice and dice" garments to make them Loved again.
Or pop into the local op shop to find something that appeals to you  -to upcycle.

All details below - please share, invite your friends, family and remember to
BOOK IN. Workshop fees can be paid on the day.
