TERM FOUR CLASSES

Term four is always a busy term with every one getting organised for Christmas & many of us like to make something personal for our friends and loved ones. For Term four we have added some new designs to accompany our existing christmas catalogue so hopeful there is something for everyone. 

Classes will again run on Monday mornings, Tuesday evenings & this term we are also running them on Saturdays. All the details regarding class times can be found on our Classes Page HERE

CLASS ONE - GETTING READY FOR CHRISTMAS
Four week class starting Monday 21st or Tuesday 15th October.
Choose to make one project or a few . . . 

In recent weeks we have been busy designing & stitching new projects for Christmas. We stumbled across some gorgeous linen fabric in Calico & Ivy which led us on a journey of making a few vintage themed projects . . . not to say that these projects won't look fantastic in a traditional colour way or even a more funky & bright colour way!

NEW! - CHRISTMAS TREE SKIRT
We have been asked to produce a tree skirt to go around the bottom of the tree. If you are like me then it always looks a bit bare until the presents are all put under the tree on Christmas eve. Our tree skirt has six beautiful panels with little houses, christmas trees & Stars. I am still working on the hand quilting as I thought a bit of hand quilting would really add to the vintage feel I was after but here it is so far . . .

This project can be done quite quickly if you don't mind a bit of home work so you could get this made as well as something else in the four week class.



NEW! - ADVENT BUNTING
My house will have this gorgeous christmas advent bunting proudly displayed this year. This is two ribbons of flags, each flag has a pocket to pop a treat or a message into so we can count down the days to santas arrival.


We have plenty of other christmas projects to choose from - Santa Sacks, Christmas stockings, Yule tree table runner, Tree fairy & Christmas decorations. They are all listed on our patterns page HERE.




CLASS TWO - GIFTS FOR CHRISTMAS
Three week class starting Monday 18th or Tuesday 12th November.

Choose to make one project or a few . . . 


Making gifts for friends & family is always a lovely idea for christmas. We have come up with some great kids projects with our peekaboo toy bags & purses & our cushion keeper to keep the favourite teddy or night time reading book in a safe place. There are plenty of ideas to choose from if you have a good look on our patterns page.




SATURDAY CLASSES
Getting to class during the week can be difficult so this term we have included three Saturday Workshops. If there is something from our Christmas class or Gifts class you would like to make, then you can book into one of the Saturday classes. We also have a scheduled workshop each Saturday relating to Christmas.



We are still working on more samples for classes so keep your eye on our Facebook pages as the pictures will be posted as they are finished.

Look forward to seeing you in class
