The Auckland Doll Makers & Collectors Club is having an open day on Sunday 14th October to any one who is interested in what the club does I will have to check the time and place again but I think its at: Ferndale House, 830 New North Rd, (corner of Alexis Ave), Mt Albert, Auckland.
Donna and Blue will know what time it is but I will need to go find the pamphlet edited to add the time 1.30 to 4.30pm and the address is right

It was fun.. friendly, interesting ladies with tons of knowledge to share. Beautiful dolls, old and new, and a chance to view some of the comp entries again, up close. Our comp pieces got another outing too, a good chance to show the dolls of polymer clay. They had a good turn-out from the public..despite the weather.

Glad you had a good day and that people got to see and appreciate your comp pieces again Were there any new blood,( even if they were just interested in porcelain doll making) Ooh that wind and rain was nasty

I heard them say they had 3 potential new members (one was ME.. hehehe) and some interest from others. They have workshop type days too.. where they make different crafty items, and they showed some previous projects.. they'll be fun days.

I'll probably be really pushy about getting them all to try Polymer Clay sculpting.. hahaha. Actually one lady there said they had a PC day, but not many had wanted to try... She had her piece there.. a wip.. it was REALLY GOOD too.. I'll be encouraging her.. LOL I wish you were closer Fantail.. and your mum, she'd really love it. Its only one Sunday a month so not too full-on.

You keep encouraging her - you might inspire them all to give it a go Sound cool and but yeah too far and weekends are all we have to do everything you don't have time for in the week including being creative
