reclaim the void community weaving

all around the country, communities have been linking in with the reclaim the void project, and so are we. 

with the intention to 'weave country whole', these twined rugs are woven from discarded bed sheets and use hoops created from ag pipe. 

our contribution will reach the project in may to join 3,000 other rugs.

we still have lots of sessions coming up -

the thursday night creatives meet weekly from 6pm at the CWA hall, and everyone is welcome. $3 covers venue fees, and bring a plate to share if you wish. 

sessions are also running at the boonah library on wednesdays from 10am to 12 noon til 22 may. these are no cost.

we're also participating in the tamborine mountain arts trail offering free drop in sessions at the chapel at the grand chameleon between 10am and 3pm on sunday 5 may, monday 6 may, saturday 11 may and sunday 12 may.  

if you have any old bed linen (preferably cotton), please send them our way.

everyone is encouraged to wear something upcycled or secondhand.

calling all makers and menders! we're gathering outside IGA to sit and stitch for the first ever global mend in public day again as part of fashion revolution week.
