workshops catch up.

i heart...

catching up!

and i've got lots of workshop-like catching up to do! first off, lets talk about the Starting From Stitch workshops i facilitated at Made In The Shade last month. i had an awesome time over the 4 meet ups, teaching some lovely ladies how to hand-sew, embroider & knit as well as having our fair share of blethering & stuffing ourselves with homemade treats! look...

 

 

and i was more than impressed with what the girls made with their new found crafty skills...

 

 

 

i'm in the midst of organising the next lot of Starting From Stitch workshops so if you're interested in taking part please e-mail me on iona@iheartdotdotdot.co.uk 

now, for all you mums, dads, grannies, aunties... that just don't know what to get your little angel for xmas, why not get them something a bit different? like this block of craft workshops perhaps...

i will be facilitating a 6 week block of craft workshops for wee'yins, teaching them how to hand-sew, cross-stitch & knit. not only will they learn new skills, meet new friends & have a whole lot of fun, they will bring home lovely handmade presents for you! including hand-sewn decorations, knitted hairbands/bow ties, cross-stitch badges & a whole heap more.

to get more info or to book, e-mail the lovely Vonnie at The Life Craft on:

starting from stitch.

i heart...

being excited about taking my first Starting From Stitch workshop.

yup, that's right, this friday sees the very first Starting From Stitch workshop at Made In The Shade.
during week one, attendees will learn how to do a basic stitch, draw & sew on their own animal design, stuff it & stitch it together (whilst munching on treats & sipping on punch) so by the end of the evening everyone will have their very own fabric animal to take home!

they will also get to take home a wee booklet i've put together & here's a wee preview...

i'm very happy to say that the classes are fully booked. but! if you want in, send an e-mail to the Made In The Shade girls & let them know so we can put these workshops on again for you.

i'm also excited to be down in glasgow this weekend because it's the Supermercado launch on saturday! i can't wait to see all the stalls & goings on, you should most definitely come too.

(but don't spend ALL your pennies, because i'll have a stall there the week after ;))

xox.
