Maker Gallery - September

It's been another busy month here (I'll reveal why soon) and I've been trying to keep up with taking pics of all the lovely things you guys are making in the workshops and coming in to show us in the shop.

You never fail to impresse me! Here's a snap shot of some of this months makes...

When my Mum came to teach the curtain and blind workshops at the beginning of the month we had loads of cute mini blinds and curtains! Who would have thought blinds and curtains could be cute?! But these little sample ones were!

Rebecca shared this pic on our Facebook page of the iphone cover she made after attending the beginners crochet workshop! I think it looks amazing!

Mandy also sent us a pic of sweet little bags she made with fabric she picked up in the shop...

Sarah shared this one of a little apron she made for her son, also with fabric she picked up in the shop. You can't really gauge the size of it in this pic but I've seen it in real life and honestly - its a cute as a little puppy!

Sarah showed us this sweet little girls dress she made with this fabric

Last but by no means least is the gang of goegeous Anna dresses that were stitched up this weekend with By Hand London girls Elisalax and Charlotte in the super duper fun Anna Dress workshop.

I loved every single one of these dresses! They all looked so dam good!

I couldn't get those crazy chicas to look at the camera at the same time and my photoshop skills don't stretch far...so here is the other pic, just for good measure!

Check out their catwalk video here!...

The By Hand gals will be back in town next year, if you would like to register you interest in one of their classes, send us an email at [email protected] and we can let you know when the next dates are set!

And that rounds this months fantastic makes....

Don't forget about our Fashion Show Event this Thursday (3rd October) 7-9pm for more Autumn/winter project inspiration. We're going to have a special preview of all the Rowan garments that are heading to the Knitting and Stitching Show at Alexandra Palace.

Lucy and I will be on hand to set you straight with all your sewing projects and the knit and crochet expert - extraordinaire Sarah will also be in the house-yay! We've had a serious amount of new fabric in this past week so come check it out!

For purchases over £20 we'll be giving away a free goodie bag (while stocks last) which has 1meter of Rowan/freespirit fabric, a cotton reel, ball of yarn, pen and a sewing pattern! Wowsa! What a deal! And we have lots more special offers on the night too - but you'll have to come along to find out what they are!

Hope to see you there! x x
