🦊 Foxes are popping up left, right and centre at The Creative Studio! 🦊

Our After School Club has been busy bringing these gorgeous foxes to life, and we couldn’t be prouder of what the children have achieved.

From carefully constructing each body part and tackling those tricky curved seams, to patiently piecing everything together, every fox is the result of determination, creativity and growing sewing skills. These projects have challenged the children every step of the way, but they’ve embraced each new technique with enthusiasm and perseverance.

The smiles on their faces say it all! Seeing their finished foxes come to life after weeks of hard work makes every stitch worthwhile. 🧵🦊

We think they’ve done an absolutely fantastic job – don’t you? ❤️

✨ What a fantastic Bag Making Workshop! ✨

It was such a wonderful day filled with creativity, learning and plenty of laughs. Everyone created these gorgeous lined bags while learning how to work with oilskin fabric (waxed cotton) and mastering some fantastic bag-making techniques along the way.

From cutting and construction to adding the finishing touches, it was amazing to see everyone’s confidence grow as their bags came together. I love seeing each person’s unique take on the project!

💙 By popular demand, I’ll be running this workshop again in September!

If you’ve been wanting to learn how to sew with oilskin, improve your bag-making skills, or simply enjoy a fun day of sewing with like-minded people, this is the perfect workshop for you.

Keep an eye on my page for September dates and booking details—they’ll be announced soon, and I expect places to fill quickly!

Thank you to everyone who joined me for this workshop. I can’t wait to sew with you all again! 🧵👜
