Just in case you missed reading about the Challenge, here’s some info for you…
Our Challenge for 2014 will take a slightly different path from the last few years where participants have created items for charity. And we’re not going to send you a materials pack either- you’ll need to use your imagination and raid/extend your stash…
“Flora Fauna Fibre – will give you the opportunity to be part of a venue wide display, using your amazing creative ability you can go wild – literally!
All we require is for you to design your piece (or pieces) using the natural environment of the beautiful Otago Peninsula as your inspiration. You can create a garment, homeware, artistic piece, yarn, whatever takes your fancy!
Here are the requirements for the challenge…
* You must be a current financial CF member
* Entries can be any size but the cost of freight is your responsibility
* Must use the Otago Peninsula Flora and Fauna as inspiration
* Can be created using any fibre in broadest terms
* But must be a manipulated fibre technique
* Can be the creation of individuals or groups.
* The entry pack (for single or multiple entries) will be $10
