Report on Craft and Quilt Fair 2015

Wow, what a fantastic response to our Make and Take Workshops held at the Craft and Quilt Fair. 87 students made Celebration Cupcakes over the 5 days of the Fair. The volunteer tutors were very busy, and only had time to take a few photographs to share on the last day. These smiling students really enjoyed their workshop and were pleased to pose for us and give permission for their photos to be shown here. What a great result, with the profits of the workshops all going towards our Building Fund. This is to help expand and improve our building in Concord West to be a Centre of Excellence for Embroidery, and should be open in late 2017.
