June Monthly Gathering in the North and South

Our next Monthly Gathering in the North and South is Monday 17th June.

The Southern group will hold a fundraiser for the Cancer Council.  If possible, please bring a small cash donation which we can then make to the Cancer Council.

Bring along your latest completed project or works in progress to show and share.

News from the Northern Group: As the days shorten we have retreated from the sheltered “al fresco” (as I am supposed to call it) back into the warmth of the Studio. Our gathering this month welcomed another newby who is looking to join us. It is wonderful to see the breadth of accomplishments in our small membership but also to rejoice in the sharing of ideas and skills.  The last few meetings have encompassed machine stitching with members bringing their equipment along.  Embellishing/felting, freehand stitching, couching and the use of embroidery hoops with machines has been demonstrated and put into practise.  

Members also love to find out about books you have discovered, workshops or online challenges you have taken part in, exhibitions you have seen….anything textile, fibre, or paper-arts related! Or simply come along for a social time and a chat.
