New Year, New courses and workshops…..

New Year, New Creatings!! (Gift Tokens available……)

You may well be aware that I’ve been teaching P&Q for 20 years now, I’m not quite sure where that time has gone to so quickly!! I teach nationally and even internationally these days 😆….but every week I’m available in Cornwall teaching locals a bit of therapy…… or if you’re visiting Cornwall come pay a visit?!!

Beginners and further techniques for both hand & machine patchwork & quilting every Monday in St Austell, @ Sew & Fabric or every Tuesday & Wednesday in Wadebridge in my Therapy Cupboard, start your creative journey whenever suits you, stay for as many weeks as you want, continue onto other projects and techniques as you want…… 2 1/2hrs of peaceful therapy at a time!

January 2020 sees my usual workshop ‘Get to know your sewing machine’….
I designed this day workshop many years ago to introduce you to your machine. To become aquatinted with your new creative friend!! You’ll come away from the day with a made item and the confidence to continue making for yourself.
Weds 22nd Jan, Wadebridge £45
Thursday 23rd Jan, St Austell £45

If there’s a project or specific technique you want to learn just send me the message asking the questions!!

Watch out for day workshops appearing on the list below. (booking is essential)

Monday (St Austell)Tuesday & Wednesday (Wadebridge) in the afternoons we make machined quilts and projects to develop your skills at the rate you want. You choose the design and I’ll guide you through as you need.

Attention lovely Peoples!!!

Some lovely comments from you all recently has left me thinking….. next year I’m planning a couple of round robin trips, ‘Therapy on The Road’.

If anyone wants me to stop off and teach or give talks on the way please message me. The more I do the cheaper my expenses for everyone. (yeah, I’m a hussy!! 😂😂😂)

There’s also one trip to Southern Ireland in the offing, if anyone wants me in Ireland, again, please contact me and I’ll see can I share the Cupboard Love!

Socials & cuppas will be fitted in as well if anyone’s up for it?
