Sewing Clinic
Rather than all doing the same project this time we invite
you to bring along your own projects and seek advice from the sewing experts
for anything you are struggling with, or any new techniques you would like to
learn.
There will be a sewing expert on each table, the areas they
can cover are next to their names below.
When you come in you can choose which table to sit at based upon what you would like to learn. You can move table at any time during the day to learn from the other experts too, it will be a sharing of skills. Alternatively if you just want to bring your own project and come and sew that works too.

Raffle
We have some lovely raffle prizes kindly donated by Exeter Sewing Machine Company, Search Press, Minerva Crafts, Storey Publishing and Vive Books .
Scrap Swap
Given the popularity of the scraps at the last meet up we thought it would be fun to do a scrap swap this time. Other people's scraps as always so much more fun than our own! If you'd like to join in please bring a sandwich bag/freezer bag of fabric scraps to swap. That will ensure people are getting back approximately the same as what they give.
Tickets can be purchased using the button below, spaces are limited so book early to avoid disappointment. I'll allocate you a ticket number and e-mail it to you after payment has been received. If your main e-mail is different from your Paypal e-mail please use the 'alternate e-mail' box when making your payment. Just to ensure you receive your ticket number.
