Upcoming Workshops:

Sunday 7 June: Rag Rugged Birds

Craft a vibrant rag-rugged bird using recycled, colourful textile clippings. Celebrate sustainability and self-expression as you transform fabric scraps into a one-of-a-kind piece of textile art

Sunday 5 July: Macrame Feathers

Create your own macramé feathers inspired by the plumage of coal canaries, racing pigeons, or even clucky chickens in this hands-on textile workshop. Learn simple knotting techniques to craft beautiful, touchable feathers perfect for decorations.
