There's lots of lovely sewing to be had over the next 3 months ahead of the August break. Check out our classes with spaces if you fancy some sunny summer sewing x ( details on the classes page here)
Teens Bunting
A great 'first' sewing machine project for 10 - 15 year olds. Spend a morning making a length of bespoke bunting for your bedroom and build your confidence using the sewing machine at the same time. This class is suitable for kids moving up from Miss Stitch with some sewing machine experience, but they do not need to be confidently sewing aided - this class is heavily tutored to get them happy using the machine and sewing.
We also have an Adults Summer Garden Party Bunting Class where we will tackle the same project...a great 'confidence booster'; on the sewing machine or just enjoy some summer frivolous sewing fun
Cathedral Windows ( am and pm)
This is a perfect summer sewing project. It looks really complicated but is lovely and straightforward to put together under Claire's patient tuition. Its a hand sewing project and it's a scrap buster too, a fun technique to make pin cushions, cushion covers etc.
English Paper Piecing Workshop
This is my summer sewing of choice. It's portable, it's hand sewing, it can be as big or small a project. Make a quilt, make a cushion, learn how to draft your own patterns or try out one of ours...from wagon wheels to rose stars or stick with a classic hexagon.....for new to EPPers up to experienced EPPers wanting to try a new pattern or sew with a group.
Fabric Lanyard Keyrings
A super quick, super useful class - learm how to make a fabric key chain or lanyard. Finally get your keys organised, colour code, personalise, give away as a gift....this is such a great skill to have and it's a fun quick project...come and play x
Come and make a crochet or knitting needle wrap with Victoria. This is such a great project as you can mix it up and make anything from a roll for colouring pencils on the go for a little person, to make up brushes for a bigger person...as well as finally finding a place to store all your knitting or crochet equipment in one handy to get to place. As usual with Vics classes the delight will be in the detail. Add hexi embellishment or embroidery touches...
