The latest issue of Connecting Threads should be arriving in members’ letterboxes from today. You will notice one thing is missing – the exhibition pack! Don’t worry, you haven’t missed out – it will be coming with the June newsletter.
Here is an explanation and a revised key dates table:
The Exhibition Pack is not included in with the March issue of Connecting Threads as there were still unresolved matters at the time the newsletter went for printing and packaging. The pack will be included with the June newsletter, still giving you three weeks to meet the entry deadline of 20 June 2014. The information in the pack will be posted on the website in May for those who like to get their entries in early.
