Esther Nitschke Weaving Studio: Open Day
Sunday 6th of November 10am-4pm
Renowned weaver Esther Nitschke MBE has been spinning, weaving and teaching workshops for nearly 60 years. Her long history of awards and accolades include three woven garments held in the collection at Te Papa and in 1994 she was made a Member of the Order of the British Empire for her services to weaving.
On display in her Feilding studio will be a wide range of work as well as items of weaving memorabilia including her own personal sample books. Esther will be giving demonstrations for those interested and her much-loved hand woven linen/cotton tea towels, beautiful wool blankets and cushions will be available for purchase.
Everyone is welcome.
The studio will be open 10am – 4pm on the first Sunday of the month over summer, or by appointment.

Fedora hat wanted
Does anyone have a fedora hat (like all men wore in the 40's and 50's) that I could borrow, hire or but. I need a hat for a function over Labour Weekends.
