SALE day and other news

On Wednesday 25 August we held the first VIP sale - very pleased to have a stampede (Bowraville style) of people in the shop and even more pleased to bank some much needed income from our outlet range. Things are looking good !

We have a great group of students in our new Tuesday sewing classes are going great guns with 6 students now joining us each week.

We also have some new visitors coming over from the Nambucca Youth Services Centre to join us from time to time. Nellie continues design class currently working on some adaptations of local plants.

Trouble on the venue front as our funding is about to conclude for our shop lease and we need to source an alternate location. At this point there is too much risk involved in taking a loan so we fly by the seat of our pants for a little while again. Adding to the anticipation is the conclusion of many of our positions at the end of September - fortunately we have great support from TAFE Outreach which will see us through the next few months.

for some (pictured left) it's just all too much...
