Well here we are, Easter 2008 and not a word from either Jane or Suzie despite the promises of at least one of them ….. But Suzie has only just returned from Oz seeing her newly married daughter in her new home (and hopefully sampling many of the delights of Australian Quilting). will she now post some photos here? – Welcome home Suzie and Gary

Despite everything, Jane has survived the worst of the winter in her small. cold craft unit. She has worn her frozen fingers to the marrow with new quilts and patchworks,

These are now spread about her unit in Corris for all to see and admire. We are now back full-time 7 days a week until the end of October

Jane has almost completed our latest Welsh Wall Hanging – a new, commissioned, Ddraid Goch for 2008. This will be going to the USA with its owners when they move later in the spring. We trust they enjoy it every day, and that it brings many happy memories of our rich Welsh heritage and country.

Easter is upon us, we’ve had more visitors in the last two days than in the last 3 months combined (although that’s not saying much) despite us being open 5 or more days a week. Very good to see everybody, and to welcome back old friends, despite the arctic weather with hail, snow and a bitter wind. But, just up the road, Cadair Idris looks magnificent with its old crater ringed with snow, like an appropriate Ice-Age Halo.

We hope to see you at Corris Craft Centre, free entry and a good day out for all the family. Don’t forget to pop in and say hello…………. , and also pay a visit to the newly painted cafe with its rather fetching blue and white blinds (courtesy of Bumble Bee Quilting !!)
