Hello

Brown Owls!

February 25, 2008

Yikes! Brown Owls started last night! I am pinching myself! It was so much fun, and I can see it is just going to get better and better as we all relax and get to know each other and settle in!
We had 23 ace girls of all ages and stages at the Clubhouse last night – we snacked and sipped and stitched and gossiped. It was just great. I’m so pleased that it worked so well! Sorry for the girls who didn’t manage to trip the sensor light in the carpark – and had to feel for their cars in the darkness! We will be sure to rectify that next time!

If you are not a member – you can find out more over here.
We are happy for people to come casually, or sign up for a few nights – whatever suits you. In the next fortnight, we will be announcing the calendar for the next 6 months. First special event will be a Saturday-before-mothers-day Mum and Kid craft-a-long. Stay tuned for further booking details – or register on the Brown Owls site to get an email update FIRST!

edit – we’ve set up the Brown Owls Are Crafty Flickr Group – go join if we sounds like your kind a thing!

Stay tuned also for the Brown Owls Flickr Group too – so you can upload your own Brown Owls pics! Last nights Brown Owls girls – don’t forget to email us your suggestions so we can keep improving and making it more special!

    The clubhouse looks SO wonderful! And it looks and sounds like you all had a bunch of fun. Hope to come to a meet soon – after all this ‘selling the house’ business is over and done with 🙂

    WOW. I’m so jealous! The space looks amazing – and so many crafters in one place – brilliant!

    I’ll be sure to book in for a session next time I’m in Melbourne…..

    Speaking of which, a certain newspaper we all know and love emailed me today on your recommendation – THANKYOU.
