Temporary Closure

 

Good morning everyone

Due to personal reasons, it is with regret that I have to inform you that I have taken the hard decision to temporarily close Crafty Friends Challenge Blog for the rest of this year. 

The challenge blog will be reopening on Friday 1st January 2021                           and I hope you will be able to join us.

Thank you for your continued support.

Kind regards

Diane Louise (Team Leader)
