Craft Group - See Details Below
Like with the previous craft group members bring whatever they are working on and continue with their own projects in a sociable and friendly atmosphere. In addition, we also create a programme of mini workshops showcasing and sharing the knowledge and expertise of crafts from within the group. We can have ideas around knitting, crochet, sewing and embroidery, painting and papercraft, as you know the list of crafts is endless and exciting
