Magnetic Island Visit.


As Marion covered the Post Card Party very well in the newsletter, I'm going to skip right to the Magnetic Island visit.

On Wednesday a good twenty members took the ferry over to Magnetic Island to visit the craft group there. It was my first time to do this and I can't imagine why! It would've been worth closing the shop to go. It was a most enjoyable experience. To get an overall picture of the day click once on the photo above then slideshow in the top left hand corner of the window which opens.
The Magnetic Island ladies do an impressive amount of work for charity, supporting both indigenous and overseas organisations. Besides making these items they are a very talented group in a range of crafts. It was a real treat to view their show and tell.
We were served a scrumptous lunch of soup, bread and sandwiches and an array of dessert to tempt the most hardened figure watcher. I made sure I didn't loose my own figure by piling my plate! Yum!!
