Weaving Studio Open Day - Feilding
Master weaver Esther Nitschke has an open day this coming Sunday the 3rd of September at her studio at 7 Ranui Place, Feilding. 10am - 4pm.
Come and see her beautiful hand woven blankets and tea towels and she will be doing weaving demonstrations throughout the day.
