Workshops

All workshops use machine embroidery techniques, a basic machine is fine but if you have a more advanced machine this could be a good opportunity to put it through its paces making fabrics for the Wild Art Dolls, Vessels or Pocket Bags. Plenty of hand stitch embellishment and lots of fun!!

If your group would like one of these workshops please email me for further details, available dates and fees.

Coffee Break Textiles
