We are very excited to have Alison Luck back to teach wet felting, after a couple of months break! :)
For this workshop, you can bring along a project that you’re working on or you can receive some assistance to bring an idea to life or you can join us to make a “comfort heart” - so nice to hold or to give to a friend.
Cost: $25 - All materials are supplied for the hearts.

If you are bringing along your own project and materials, the cost will be $15
(There will also be extras in terms of wool and silk fibres available for your use in your own projects.)

We apologise for the different price listed in the February workshop calendar ($20) - we hadn't confirmed with Alison prior to releasing the calendar.

On Saturday, we had another Birdhouse Workshop using recycled fence palings. Our wonderful teacher Allan Lewis prepares the donated palings at the Wynyard Men's Shed - sorting for the most viable of the donated palings, then cutting into the pieces needed for putting together kits for the workshops. We are very grateful for Allan's hard work in preparing for and running these workshops which have proven to be very popular. We are also grateful to the Wynyard Men's Shed for supporting Allan with the preparation needed.

It was so exciting to see so many new faces at Body Groove today - we hope that you felt energised and uplifted after the fun exercise session :)

Please note that there will not be Body Groove for Wednesday 12th February and maybe not for the following week (19 Feb) dependent on whether the work on the Wynyard Senior Citizens Club roof is completed or not - we will let you know :)

Come Along and join us for An Afternoon of Creating Paper.

Annie and Lisa are aiming for everyone to produce 6 postcard sized hand made paper pieces, as well as learning how to set up what is needed to continue making paper at home if you choose to do so.

***Please bring TWO 6X4"(10X15cm) frames. (Just pop into shiploads or reject shop)

We will provide the materials to make your deckle (the super high tech device needed to make your paper) out of your frames.
Please make sure your frames are simple flat\square styles... not rounded or bevelled. We need to be able to stretch mesh over them and staple it securely.

The workshop will probably be a bit splashy, so bring an apron or old clothes.

Monday 10 February
1pm to 3pm
Wynyard Showgrounds - Reception Hall
Jackson St

Spaces are limited so please book in! Cost is $12.
See you there!

Rachel took some of the donated supplies home to sort and created several items from scraps - envelopes, mini pads, pocket inserts, journal pages and page corner book marks to name a few :) Rachel also made some fancy edge decorations by using the zig zag stitch on the sewing machine, minus thread - it looks great! video credit: Rachel Lee
