Quilting Classes
Hi my name is Lynda (my husband is Rod) and I am pleased to offer the following classes:
Machine Applique and Patchwork. See first photograph. Table runner. This class will be for approximately two weeks. It covers patchwork, machine applique and quilting. I will be teaching this class on a Thursday evening from 7.00 to 9.30/10 pm. The cost will be $20 per evening.
Beginner's Class. See second photograph. Lap quilt 44" x 44". This class will be for approximately six weeks. It covers nine techniques of patchwork so will give you a very good grounding. Depending on the number of people I get I will either teach this class on a Wednesday evening from 7.00 to 9.30/10 p.m. or will incorporate both classes together. The cost will be $20 per evening.

Poll: Do you think NZ should ban social media for youth?
The Australian Prime Minister has expressed plans to ban social media use for children.
This would make it illegal for under 16-year-olds to have accounts on platforms including TikTok, Instagram, Facebook and X.
Social media platforms would be tasked with ensuring children have no access (under-age children and their parents wouldn’t be penalised for breaching the age limit)
.
Do you think NZ should follow suit? Vote in our poll and share your thoughts below.
