Craft2.0 Christchurch rocked!

Tuesday, August 26th, 2008

There was coffee, there were cupcakes, and there was craft like Christchurch has never seen before.

The queue outside Our City O-Tautahi to get into Craft2.0 on Saturday stretched across the Worcester Boulevard bridge. Over four hours 3000 Cantabrians, crafty and otherwise, turned up to check out the fabulous creations Christchurch crafters have to offer.
