COUNTRY MEMBERS.
State representatives try very hard to visit our Country Members. Individual visits are often impossible, but we do try to arrange functions in areas that are central to cut the distance problem a little, and negotiate accomodation deals for special events. If you wish to discuss this please contact the
Secretary.
CARE LABELS
Our Queensland chapter is responsible for distributing Care Labels and fibre content labels, which are compulsory - they must be sewn into every item of soft furnishings. Please see the
Care Labels page or PH: 1300 360 783 or FAX: 1300 850 783 for more information.
BOOKS
The Encyclopaedia of Window Fashions and other excellent publications are sold through our Western Australian Chapter.
You can order online here.
