FLORAL PUNCH CRAFT NEWSLETTER March – April, 2003
HIA 2003 at Anaheim was very successful. Many thanks to the participants from various countries who came back to visit me this year. It was fantastic to see so many smiling faces I knew mingled with the new. The hospitality of The Punch Bunch is wonderful and I feel as if the USA is my second home. I treasure the friendship formed with Cheryl.
Paul and his staff at Centagraph, Harrogate, UK. were an instant family. The Workshops were enjoyable and the results were delightful. Thank you to all concerned for your warmth and generosity.
Woodware of Skipton, UK. completed the trio with their cheerful and bighearted welcome. It was a pleasure to demonstrate at the NEC, Birmingham with such a crew. I called us “The League of All Nations” as we came from England, Scotland, Canada, Holland and Australia. Thanks Judith for inviting me.
The Tasmanian trip, including the weather, was wonderful. Leone met a number of the Floral Punch Craft Association members along with retail store owners. Leone thanks the Tasmanians for their warm, friendly welcome and hospitality.
Janine, ‘the oil that keeps the cogs turning smoothly" did a wonderful job over the past 3 months while I was missing overseas/Tasmania. Many thanks to Janine and staff. Leone.
