January Workshops

Our normal practice for January is to have 'In-house' tutors in case the weather decides to be difficult and causes problems for tutors travelling any distance.

This January three members taught workshops entitled: A Touch of Gold, Hand Stitch Sampler, Secret Pockets.

Here are the examples of the high quality work in progress.

Weekend Workshop, Exploring Velvet with Angie Hughes, September 2013

Anyone lucky enough to have worked with Angie Hughes will know what a fun and exciting time will be had. Angie has a marvellous sense of humour and her artistic talent is evident in her beautiful creations. She is a patient teacher and is most generous with her time, knowledge and sharing her ideas. Two pieces of her work are shown here amongst these photographs of members work - before and after stages.
