Craft workshops
Wishing you all a happy crafting 2010
In our workshops we cater for all levels, see list below for current classes.
From beginners wanting to try something new to the experienced crafter looking for new ideas or to try something different.
We work on the theory that the workshops/classes should be fun, informative and learn something new. (even us). We endeavor that you go home with a finished project.
Most of our workshops are held on our vessel "LB Hardfeet", moored in the quayside by the office. It is a great light, relaxing and informal space to be arty crafty. A little escape for a couple of hours. When on occasion the boat is not available, the workshops are help in Arch 16
