Adelaide Brown Owls - BYO
As we head into Autumn and Winter, it's a great time to work on those little projects that are sitting in your Work In Progress box or basket. Why not bring one along and finish it off?
Otherwise, bring along whatever crafty little number you are working on at the moment.
That might be crochet, knitting, embroidery, tatting (!), macrame (!!) or granny faces made out of old dried apples....... hmm, maybe not that last one.
Or if you are completely stuck for something to do, we still have some felting kits in the cupboard along with other bits and bobs that we can dig out.

After a sensational April meet at the new location of Nanna's Cafe, Launceston Brown Owls will once again descend on Lonnie's latest hip venue of vintage and cake joy for our May Meet.
When: TUESDAY 10 May 2011 (Please note change of day)
Time: 7pm - 9pm
Where: Nanna's Cafe, 7 Coulter Court, Launceston (You can indeed park outside at that time of night. Just turn into the laneway off York St, right beside Toyworld).

With the colder weather upon us, some of the crafters expressed their desire to get reaquainted with this crocheted gem. Please bring a crochet hook and yarn. If you need help on hook size and yarn ply please just leave a comment.
Don't feel the Granny square calling? Please just bring your own Work in Progress (WIP).
Remember we also have our quilted squares still on the go. We are asking that Lonnie Owls produce 1 x 8 inch square and 1 x 4 inch square in black and white ( with one other colour of your choice if you desire). More details here
All welcome. Never been before? Just come along. We are an extremely cruisy and friendly bunch (but not in a stalker king of way).

Brown Owls Sydney meeting
Last night was our first Sydney Brown Owls for a while. We met up at the lovely Berkelouw Wine Bar and had a great time eating, crafting and catching up.
The food was really yummy with a range of pizzas, bruschetta, tapas and desserts...we also had a few cheeky glasses of wine (^_^)
Amy was very pleased with her finished dahlia.
We had a great time and look forward to seeing everyone next month! We will be having a meeting on the 20th of each month. Next month's meeting details will be posted here, as well as on the Brown Owls Sydney Facebook page and through The Brown Owls Twitter.
