Today at the Wednesday social gathering there was a lot going on - when isn't there? But today perhaps more so than ever.
Dinie led a very successful 'Scrumbling' session which will be continued at the coming Fibres on Saturday gathering. (If you missed the post on scrumbling go back to the post dated Friday, 22nd May 2009 for an explanation.)
Pam was welcomed back from Fibres Tasmania 2009 by a very aristocratic Lah Cat which Susie M made her for her Altered Book display.
Amongst the items passed around at Show and Tell was this beautiful painting by Birte which she says she brought instead of her weekly watercolour because that didn't turn out as well as she'd imagined it would so found a home in the wastepaper basket. (That's me with camera reflected back at you in the glass and you might find me searching through Birte's wastepaper basket for her rejected but certain-to-be perfectly good work!)
After Show and Tell Deb P showed the Bookies group how to make a Christmas tree from a paperback novel. To see more photos please click on the above photo of Deb making stars for the trees.
It seems Barb N and Pam W had a wonderful time at Fibres Tasmania in Launceston and they brought back fabulous work from the workshops they attended. Above is one of Barb's mixed media pieces from her workshop with Glenys Mann. And below is some of Pam's amazing felting.

Okay, let's be honest, now. Whose sewing room (studio please - we're all artists!) doesn't look like Annette's, in which it appears she lost her letter?
The theme for this month's postcard is 'I had written him a letter' and it has inspired everyone involved to new heights! To see a few of the postcards please click on Annette's message above.*
Well that was just some of what was happening at Fibres today. Keep in touch with upcoming events by looking at the diary to your right - and please leave a comment to show you've been here!
