HANDOVER OF BLOG

This photo and article are per courtesy of the Country Life taken at Conference time with Mug Bags and one of the Challenge quilts. From the New Year I am handing over the operation of the blog to another committee member from Piecemakers and I wish Shirley all the best and I hope she enjoys it as much as I have. Good Luck Shirley.

BURSARY WON BY RHAMAN DONOVAN

This is an extract from Rami's email who was the winner of Piecemakers 2009 Bursary.

I hope you had a wonderful Christmas and a Happy New Year. I was very excited to meet you at the "Inside Out Fashion Parade" and very honoured to win the award. The $500.00 has come in very handy and I have been able to get a computer to help me with my studies.
This year is going to be a scary but exciting year. Half way through the year I will graduate from my course and hopefully land myself a job in the fashion industry. My main passions at the moment are children's wear and swimwear.
I would really like to have my own swim wear label called Rurue. Your support has really helped. I am so grateful to everyone from State Piecemakers.

We, as Piecemakers, wish her every success for her future.
