Join us for a sewing workshop with textile designer, Amy Trainor.

Using a computerised sewing machine, you will have the opportunity to make your own two-tone geometric pinwheel cushion.

This stylish, colourful cushion will measure approximately 16 “x 16 “- perfect for accenting your sofa, bed or armchair. There will be choice of different coloured cotton canvas fabric to make your design, so you’ll be able to make it in a two-tone combo that’s perfect for your home.

You will learn how to:

  • Thread a sewing machine/wind a bobbin
  • Quilting techniques
  • Insert a zip in the cushion cover
  • Sew a cushion together

The workshop is suitable for beginners as well as those who have prior sewing experience. It’s a great opportunity to meet new people as well as develop your sewing skills.

Amy is founder of Kaleidoscope Textiles, a sustainable bag, accessory and jewellery brand. She works with high-quality, bold, bright fabric and materials to create bags, accessories and jewellery with a distinctive design.

All materials and equipment will be provided on the day, including the cushion insert.

Refreshments will be provided. Please advise us of any dietary requirements or allergies.

Suitable for ages 12+

Please note we cannot offer refunds on this event.
