Canberra Brown Owls - February 2018

Hey Brown Owls!

So it's now February, all the kids are back at school and we're all starting to settle into the year ahead and dream of next year's summer holidays!  So to get our year organised, how about making cute little needle books.  The perfect little addition to your craft kit.  Of course, feel free to bring along some of your projects - bring along your UFOs, new projects, old projects or even something new.  

Need inspiration?
