Who can attend
This session is for adults aged 16 and over.

What if I don’t finish?

You’ll leave with the skills and guidance to confidently finish it on your own if needed.

...Although this was on a Saturday. The hardest thing about the whole experience is finding parking. However, once you're at the workshop Luke is very attentive and explains clearly. No experience is needed. We had just the right amount of time to make the Painters Tote. It was really relaxing and good for mental health. The workshop group sizes are limited so that Luke can give plenty of support and ideas. Highly recommend.
A really enjoyable workshop. Luke was very welcoming and took us through the steps to make the painters tote so we all ended up with amazing and unique bags by the end of the session - from complete beginners to experienced sewists. Would highly recommend!
