Happy New Year!!

Well it is 2010 already. Time flies when you're crafting. Have you noticed that too? You sit down to do something and next thing you know someone is wondering where their dinner is, or why you have forgotten to pick up the kids!

Unfortunately we will not be holding our meeting this month, due to the continuing bad weather. The roads are still pretty hairy and we don't want anyone travelling when it's not necessary.

We will be back in February on the first Wednesday.

Don't forget our challenge for this month is to reuse or re-purpose some of the leftover Christmas wrapping paper or decorations!! We are looking forward to seeing all of your great work in February.

Madhatters 1st Birthday Party

What a great cake!

The Madhatters are 1 year old! Well we had a great party last night with twenty-seven people attending. We even had a newspaper photographer there. As befits a birthday celebration we had cake. It was gorgeous, with our Madhatter in the centre. Sharon arrived with her shop full of lots of crafting goodies and we all enjoyed a little retail therapy. After the demonstrations and birthday cake we had a birthday raffle where everyone won a prize.

It was a lovely night, thanks everyone for coming and for all of the support over the past year, we hope we have many more birthdays ahead.
