February Group Meeting

It was great to get back into felting yesterday with our first group meeting.
Every one was happy and eager to try the new room layout (with air-con) and the new format for the day that will allow us more uninterrupted time to felt.

February's project taken by Sue#2, demonstrated the "cracked mud" effect, one of the surface design techniques learnt from Fiona Duthie's online workshop. Everyone was keen to have a go, so we should have some examples for next months show and tell.

We have had two members enter STRETCH Common Threads Wearable Art Competition this year, and both have got through to the final judging event to be held in Mandurah on the 28th March. The winners will be announced at the Showcase event in Mandurah on the 2nd May. Once the official photographs have been taken in March, we will post them here for you to see.

This month we are also looking forward to our weekend in Yallingup doing the Nuno Bead Meditation workshop with Nancy Balleseteros from Treetops Colour Harmonies 

An exciting start to the year!
