The challenge this year is taken from the CWA of NSW things to be studied - Parrots, Patersonia and Scotland.
There are over 50 parrots in Australia, most of which are endemic to Australia only and each region has their own from budgies to cockatoos and every size and colour in between.
Patersonia is a native Australian plant that grows in both gardens and in the wild.
Scotland is the land of bagpipes, tartan, haggis, butter shortbread, castles, Clydesdales, Shetland ponies, highland cattle, lochs and much, much more.
The Challenge is a wallhanging that is no larger than a metre square complete with a hanging pocket.
Challenge for last year' entrants
Each year Mac's Crafts have kindly donated some fabric which has been cut and shared among the entrants who are then asked to submit an entry the following year using that fabric. In 2009 Louise Barron made a beautiful bag - what will we see this year?
