Brown Owls Launceston - Queensland Flood Relief

Hi All Owls and Happy New Year!

Hope your silly season was great fun in the sun, while the sun lasted.

Looking forward to Brown Owls meeting 1, 2011 which will be held on Tuesday February 1st at 7pm at the Design Centre in Tamar Street.

The theme for the night will be making things to sell to raise money for the Premier's Flood Relief (
http://www.qld.gov.au/floods/). As we are all aware, it is not such a cracking start to 2011 for our friends in Queensland.

Brown Owls Launceston has been offered a stall at a market at Festivale on Saturday February 12, so we considered this a great opportunity to make and show off some cool handmade stuff and raise some funds for those Queenslanders in dire need. It would be wonderful if you could all be involved.

If you can't make the meeting but would like to donate to the stall please let me know. Also please forward this to anyone you know who may be keen to join Brown Owls or to make something to donate. All new crafty or not-so crafty types always welcome.

Please RSVP with a comment on the blog if you would like to come along to the meeting (

See you on the 1st!

Good luck with the sale . Poor Queensland !
Many years ago I lived in Brisbane for six months and can only imagine how scary that raging torrent must be when it rushes under a wooden house on stilts .
