Morning:

Break for lunch - often if there is an exhibition on downstairs it's nice to go a take a break, stretch our legs and see what exciting artworks are being displayed.

Afternoon:

Small project - making simple cushion or bag. Learn how to make a simple pattern and if time, covered buttons too.

All materials, machines, shears etc. are provided as well as tea, coffee and biscuits.
