The scrap book enthusiasts spent the weekend at the Brim Community Centre. They had a great time creating layouts of their favorite photos, sharing ideas, and new techniques.
Lynne & Jenny did a magnificent job organizing the weekend,making sure that everyone had a great time. Di presented them with gifts to say "Thank-you"
Even Kathy's sister, Barb who was on a visit from New Zealand came along too.
Some great books have just arrived in stock. Call us for details & prices.
Art to Heart books are always full of great projects and "12 Days of Christmas" is no exception.
"Your Invited" is the lasted book by Barb & Alma from Blackbird Designs. This book is beautifully illistrated and if you are a lover of Blackbird Designs you will not be disappointed.
Annie from Hatched & Patched, latest book "Simple Pleasures" has lots of delighful stitcheries and small projects. Just right for small Christmas gifts.
While Shirl was away on her visit to Q'land I decided to surprise her by cleaning the storeroom. An old package that we had used in a display, spilt onto the floor. it wasn't long before I was coughing & sneezing & having trouble breathing. Thought I had better check what was in the package.
The lid of a 60 year old container of chillies had come off & dried chillies had scattered all over the floor. Who would have thought that after all those years they would still have such an effect. Some time later after safely removing the offenders to the rubbish bin, some customers in the shop mysteriously began sneezing & coughing. I had to confess the spilt chillies were to blame.
It is only a little over 2 weeks before our retreat. The tutors have sent their samples and they look fantastic. Aren't we lucky to have the first peek at what you girls are going to make. There is a great variety of projects so no-one should be disappointed. Looking forward to a great day on Saturday October 4th. There are still some spots if you haven't booked yet.
