June meeting will be a fabric swap extravaganza. Please dive into those stashes and drag out from the darkest corners those poor unloved fabrics you know you will never use. Bring them with you to the meeting. Maybe someone else will love them and adopt them, you never know. Maybe the fabric of your dreams will be at the meeting also. Lets try and match fabrics to crafters.
Poll: Do you think banning gang patches is reasonable?
With the government cracking down on gangs, it is now illegal for gang members to display their insignia in public places whether through clothing or their property.
This means arrests can be made if these patches are worn in places like restaurants, shops, on public transport or ferries, and on airplanes. Arrests were made recently at a funeral.
