Waitangi Day Heritage Day at Brayshaw Park - 1

On 6 February, Waitangi Day there is always a 'Heritage Day' at Brayshaw Park and the groups who have their 'home' there are expected to open their doors to the public and reveal the mysteries of their crafts. While the name above our door says Beavertown Hall, to our Guild members this place has always been, and still is known as Bobbin Cottage.
Win represented the Tapestry group with her almost-finished group challenge work. On a visit to Win's home in July we saw the yarns for this piece which Win had just dyed.
Chis and Joan used some of the time to have a sort out of the equipment. Don't ask what Chris is going to do with this relic! In fact, don't even ask what it is.
Chris also did a sterling job handing out bookmarks to advertise the upcoming Festival. Well done Chris!
Jan demonstrated inkle weaving and chatted avidly to everyone who showed an interest.
