25 May 2014 photos ..and a video!

 Jill one of our Tapestry Hosts shows Josh (nearly 12) how 
   to weave, while Mum Rachel and Nana, Shirley look on.  
Josh lives in Auckland and was up in Whangarei with
his Mum visiting his Nana who has just moved here.
Jill, one of the volunteer Tapestry Hosts explains to
Josh what to do. Its not hard to weave but tension is
 important. Too tight and the warps (vertical cords) get
 pulled in, so it's vital to have our Tapestry Hosts to
 oversee the weaving techniques of the community.
Smile Josh...You're on camera!
..and video too *smiles*
Thanks to Josh's Mum for sending me the video
 taken on her cellphone. It shows Josh weaving. 
Some photos showing the progress so far...
Isn't it looking fantastic?!!
