February meeting

Our first meeting for 2015 last night set the scene for a busy creative year ahead with much discussion and a wonderful array of diverse articles for "Show and Tell". Much attention was on the Fashion Parade and associated exhibition and bazaar to be held at the St James Uniting Church in Curtin on 9th May with many members showing completed garments already.

Some of the items for 'Show and Tell'
 Due to the generosity of the family of a late member, there was a table of books, fabric yarn and patterns, many vintage, for sale. More items are being organised for later sale - a wonderful opportunity to top up stashes!!??.

The meeting activity of designing templates from a picture or pattern was well attended, and many will no doubt apply their new knowledge to garments made in the workshop this coming weekend.

Not only are ACTTAA members very creative with textiles, they are also very talented cooks and there were a number of delicious quiches and salads  for dinner - a great way to start a night of socialising and creative endeavours.


Members are reminded that the next meeting will be the AGM on Wednesday 11th March . There will also be the normal activities such as an activity and dinner. Most positions on the Committee need to be filled and indeed must be filled for the Association to continue.
