New in 2012. Remade by You. Workshops. 01/08/2012

We’ve been asked so often to offer classes at ReMade, we’ve decided that this rather dull January is a great time to start.

In our workshops, you will be encouraged to find new uses for old things, and to create something special from scraps. You’ll learn new skills and meet new people. And eat cake!

To book, email frugalcool@hotmail.co.uk or call/text 07540 089797.

All workshops take place at ReMade 147 North High Street Musselburgh EH21 6AN.

This first club is free. Future events may be charged at £5 to pay for a professional demonstration of different knitting techniques such as intarsia, cable and knitting without seams.

Coming up in the next few weeks. Noticeboards, button felt hearts, badges, patchwork, jewellery and much more. Children’s events too.
