Contemporary Cutwork with Yvonne Brown £75 |
This is an extremely creative workshop and extends well into a 2-day session as there are many variations of the technique. Some experience of free-machining is required (if you haven't done any, book a session with Nicola to learn the basics before you come to this class.) Yvonne will bring a selection of her designs and there is an opportunity to work on her own hand made paper backgrounds as well as on to fabric. |
Goldwork for Beginners with Caroline Goodrick |
Caroline introduces you to Goldwork with this lovely traditional flower design using specialist threads. |
| This quilt is ideal for beginners as it grows quickly and uses large 'logs'. It can be as scrappy as you want - the more fabrics you choose the scrappier the look! | |
You can make any of the designs on either day £15 per day
|
Christmas decorations and stocking fillers – Snowmen garland, Crazy chicks door stop, Jester gift bags, Celtic Tree wall hanging, Table runner, Ribbon Flower & Wooden Heart gift and more! |
Dry Felt Jewellery with Elaine Peel |
Ideal Christmas presents if you can bear to give them away - maybe make a few and keep some for yourself! You could even make your own 'fluffy dice' for your car - very retro. |
Boxes and Cushions with Kath & Nicola £20 |
Come along and make a box or cushion for those last minute Christmas presents. |
Weekly workshops Wednesday evening 7pm to 9pm. £5

Be it Patchwork, Embroidery or Beading, you can bring your own project or choose one of ours - either way, Kath and Nicola will guide, coax, encourage, or do whatever it takes to help you get the most from your hobby. Make use of our well equipped, comfortable and spacious studio - classes are small, relaxed and welcoming - a good place to learn in. |
