Each month I am working at the Brisbane Botanic Gardens at Mt Coot-tha on the first Tuesday and third Monday… handing out QSWFA bookmarks (and Open Day leaflets) and promoting the group to the passers-by. Most days I’m working in the Auditorium. Please come along and say hello.
I am totally overwhelmed by the number of flower squares I have received from everyone. So far I have nearly 150. If you still haven’t quite finished one, please put it in the ice-cream bucket in the hall ASAP. There are some photos on my blog www.triciasmout.blogspot.com.au and I hope to have the finished hanging on display in June.
I have more projects underway, so please join me if you can.
- Web Installation (this still needs a catchy title!). In August I plan to be stringing webs in the trees at the gardens, and these will remain in place for a while. I am hoping some of you will be able to knit or crochet webs (or parts of webs). Please let me know if you are interested.
- Winter Solstice Celebrations. The public will be invited to help make wreaths and garlands in June. I’d love your help.
- Japan Week. We will be making paper cranes, and possibly cherry blossoms to hang in the Japanese Garden.
- The A-I-R Mail Project. People (Hopefully from all over the world) will post envelopes to the Gardens decorated with a nature theme. Please contact me for the specific instructions.
- The Photo Project. I will be making a book which includes close-up photos sent by email. Ask me for details.
