Workshops
We hold a workshop for our members every fourth Wednesday of the month, but not in July, August or December! Our workshops help our members to develop their skills, and are open to friends and visitors if there is space once members have booked their places.
Workshops vary - they may be a session led by one of our members showing a technique that they have worked on, or an external tutor from the local area showing us something new, or even a visiting tutor from UK brought over to run a special session for us. Over the coming months we will also be introducing 'virtual' workshops where we will use Zoom to enable people to join from remote locations. Sometimes our workshop day is just an opportunity for us to get together and sew something of our choice - we call these our 'UFO' days! The cost of the workshops vary depending on the tutor, the subject and any expenses that will incur.
Each workshop day runs from 10.00 until 4.00, with a welcome break for lunch. If you are interested in attending one of our workshops, either let our Workshop Co-ordinator know at one of our monthly meetings, or contact her using the link below. Put these dates in your diary now!

All meetings will be run with due regard to Covid-19 restrictions - remember to bring your mask with you.
