Waikanae Arts and Craft Society

Jocelyn from Waikanae

We are so excited to welcome Bernie McKendrey, the new owner of Fibre Flair in Waikanae. We’ve always had a good relationship with Fibre Flair and Bernie is determined to provide Kapiti with a one-stop shop for crafters. With her past experience and the shelves filling up fast, our continued association with Fibre Flair can only help both organisations build up a great crafting community. Beginners classes (beginning October) are being set up. They are agents for Pfaff, Ashford and Magacraft. Pop in and see them!
