A growing community of soft makers: all ages, all skill levels, all backgrounds, all together: bring a project or start one; help with a group make to display in the space or help others to learn. Whether it’s patchwork or embroidery, cross-stitch or simple sewing, you will likely find someone who shares your making joy.
Led by Christel Stranack (@craftybleublancrouge), a talented multidisciplinary maker, supported by other volunteers of all ages. These sessions are predominantly for hand-makers, but all welcome!
Practical Details:
Our building is not (yet) fully accessible, there are steps down to the toilets which are not suitable for wheelchair users or those who need assistance.
