Sorry for the delay in getting these photos posted!
I had the work computer gobble some of the pics I'd
taken and was SO upset and frustrated I hadn't been
able to post the rest ...until now. Thankfully, one of
our visitors came back and had taken photos on their
phone so I was able to arrange getting a copy of them
to replace the ones I'd lost.So, without further ado..
This is Brittany Trask with her Nana, Barbara Taylor.
Brittany is a student at Auckland University studying
Marine Science and was up visiting her Nana for
a break. Barbara has previously brought in other
grand-daughters to see the tapestry and do some weaving.

Denise and Daniel Ellis, are locals and hosting a Japanese
student. Denise has a go on the mini loom while her husband
talks to Tapestry Host, Naoko about the community project
and the students from Japan work on the main tapestry loom.

Aafie Schreuder from Whangarei has already been in to
see the Tapestry Project and done a little weaving
Aafie is 9 years old and has her own loom.
Her friend Dillon is 7 years old.
He had a go weaving on the mini loom.
Aafie is a very confident weaver for her age!
