The Tapestry Project is "On Hold" temporarily 
while tension issues are being resolved and repaired.

Over the School Holidays.....

Ten year old Danielle, visiting from Auckland

over the school holidays had enjoyed working 

on the tapestry so much, that she asked her 

Great-Aunt, who she was staying with,

 if she would bring her back the next day....

 Now that's dedication!

 Naoko was on hand to help...

 Woman chatted while they plied their fingers...

..and this lovely smiley lady was from Utah, North America.

Glad you stopped in, Becky and

chatted with us while you did a few rows!

 Kalivati, a Fijian New Zealander who lives locally

spent nearly an hour working at one of the mini-looms.

It's coming along, nicely, don't you think?

May 6 Update...

Things are coming along with the tapestry and work

has commenced on the black and white blocks.

Yesterday, while I was working in the BACH, lots of people 

called in to see what was happening with the tapestry project.

 Dad helps his older two children..

 while Mum working with her youngest daughter, Caitlin (7)

 Dad helping his son, Caleb.

 The whole family at work... Great job!

 "Nana Jackson" with her family.

Last night, while visiting with their Nana,

the kids "whipped up" this scarf on a mini loom

 as an early Mother's Day present.

Isn't it fabulous?!!

An elderly couple take a few moments

 out of their day to sit and weave together....

 ..and this couple were visiting the area in a camper-van 

but delayed travelling south because of the wet weather. 

The man's Scottish Grandfather used to be a 

Loom Warper in his time. 

 We had men stop in and chat...

but I couldn't convince them to "have a go"...

 This chap did though!

 More people looking and asking questions..

 Thanks to Naoko for coming in to help!

 This woman said she was from Adelaide and visiting with family 

and found working on the tapestry "very therapeutic"

Thank to everyone who has stopped by so far.

We hope you enjoyed your visit.
