As always the magazine was full of fantastic photos. articles and news from around the country. Great work ladies! 

Happy New Year

 Happy New Year everyone. I trust everyone had a lovely relaxing Christmas and saw in the New Year in style. I was going through our visitors book from our exhibition and I thought I would share with you just some of the lovely comments that people left.

I will be letting you all know about our first felt meeting of the year when we have a date confirmed.

The Exhibition

The first winter Naas Felt and Fibre Exhibition was a resounding success. 

A great crowd turned out for the Opening Night and a huge interest was shown in the work during its week on display. The exhibition was officially opened by Moll Fullam, a well known local dramatist. We held free demonstrations on the Friday which drew a lot of interest and we are already planning our next show!

A big thank you to all at McCauley Place and Naas Community Centre without which the exhibition would not have been possible.
