STATE HANDCRAFT REPORT Denise Scherer
It has been a busy year for handcraft teachers with two State Handcraft Schools, two State Handcraft Meetings, teaching at branch, division and State levels, judging local Shows, teaching at aged care centres and schools. One State Handcraft School was held at Conference time in Brisbane at All Saints Church Hall. At this school the teachers learnt macrame, Hairpin Crochet, Kumihimo Braid, Wessex Embroidery and D imensional Embroidery . At the May Handcraft School held at the QCWA Rooms in Bundaberg, the teachers-in-training, teachers and State Bars teachers learnt to crochet beads and two other necklaces, Casalguidi Em- broidery, Myreshka Embroidery, Ruskin Embroi- dery, Pattern Darning and Pentangles . There are over 230 crafts on our testing sheets and our handcraft schools are keeping these crafts going as so many handcraft skills are not taught nowadays. We thank the teachers for giving their time to prepare kits and sharing their knowledge through teaching of these crafts.
Nine new teachers-in-training were announced, two teachers received their Handcraft Teachers Badges and Mrs. Judith Talbot was presented with her State Bar at the last Conference School. The State Handcraft executive thanks all teachers for their help through the year. A lot of teachers also hold roles in their branches and divisions. I would personally like to thank my Divisional President Ms Tamara Stephensen for her help. Thanks to Vice-Chairman Mrs Helen Limkin, Secretary Mrs Anne Paulger and Treasurer Mrs Margaret Kelly for their help this year.
