Tutor Faith Young
10am - 4pm
This one-day, onsite workshop is designed for a range of abilities from beginners (with a little experience) to Improvers
Workshop Detail
Learn how to design and construct a lovely fabric covered box. The box has a main fabric with a contrasting lining and is hand sewn. It also has a detachable lid. When finished, it measures approximately 10cm x 10cm x 7cm. After a quick discussion on how the box is constructed you will start by covering the different sections with fabric, including padding where required. The box is then constructed and stitched together using a curved needle. The board used for the main box will be pre-cut for you, to allow you to get going straight away. You will then learn how to cut the board for the lid. Once done, this will also then be covered and you will be shown the slightly different construction method to be used on the lid.
There will be a choice of fabric designs for you to choose from on the day, including a selection of Christmas fabrics. At the end of the workshop you will have the knowledge and skills to be able to make more at home. They make great presents - if you can bear to give them away!
Skills/Techniques Covered
Materials
Materials are not included in your course fee. All materials will be provided by the tutor. The approximate cost of these will be £14.00, payable to the tutor during the course.

Please Bring With You
We advise that you do not buy any materials required for a course more than two weeks in advance, because occasionally a course is cancelled due to low enrolment.
