2024 Winter Workshops

This wonderful winter festival season, we are offering two different workshops at our new studio in the heart of Greytown! Join us in learning to hand-make your own crafty projects and sewing accessories in a relaxed environment welcoming to all. We can't wait to see you!

WORKSHOP 1

Walnut Pincushions

‎Handcraft 2 of your own nifty walnut pincushions - such lovely keepsakes or a wonderful gift! These pincushions are all natural, eco-friendly, and such a cute addition to your sewing kit!

Walnut shells are sourced from a stunning mature tree here in Greytown. We have wool stuffing and a beautiful range of 100% cotton fabrics to select from. The natural lanolin in wool helps to keep your pins & needles sharp & rust free. The workshop utilises traditional hand-sewing methods, is machine-free, and suitable for any level of experience. Just bring your creativity!

Join local designer Lorraine Hall and friends in studio for a cozy evening of fun and craft!
