We have had 4 weeks of fabulous sewing classes! All fully booked with lots on the waiting list some of whom were lucky as issues like flooding and isolation released some places.

I would like to thank all participants and teachers for their support in lateral flow testing, it all meant we all had a safe time keeping COVID -19 at bay.

                          

 
In machine sewing we made bags, patchwork blankets, pots, dresses, tops, ‘very small’ beach tops!, skirts, cushions, pencil cases, gloves, skirts, and shorts! With an age group of 8 to 15 years old, some beginner sewers, others more experienced sewers and using lots of Liberty Lazenby cotton a good creative time was had by all.   
    

   

 

The hand sewing class also improved their sewing skills from the ages of 5 to 10 year olds. It was lovely to see lots of new faces amongst the old ones and to see everyones sewing creativity.

We made lots of dogs, square cushions, cloud cushions, peacocks, pencil cases, bunting, monster heads, frogs, owls, and so the list goes on!
