Be Creative Sewing Circle
Join us at Makerspace for a Textile Arts workshop, a welcoming space for creativity and community!
Whether you are a beginner exploring the basics or an experienced maker looking to extend your skills the sessions offer guidance in many textile techniques. Each month, try a new technique, encouraging you to learn ways to express your creativity through fabric and fibre. Materials and tools are provided, though you are welcome to bring your own projects as well. Spend a relaxing Saturday learning and connecting with others.
​Our "Be Creative Sewing Circle" would love you to join them on the 2nd Saturday each month from 10am. (If there is more interest, an additional workshop may be scheduled for the 4th Saturday of the month.)
