It’s been a busy few weeks in our hive, so woops we missed out on posting some of the amazing progress everyone has been making. So you won’t want to miss taking a look at these!
We ran our first Sell Your Work session this evening with brilliant artist with our Ukrainian friends who were brimming with creative ideas. Next week is all about pricing and personal statements as artists 🤩
Over in Men’s Hems, some FABULOUS shirts are being completed from upcycled duvets and other pre-loved fabrics, while the festive kick off has started with some stocking making and decorations. 🎄
And our Sew Practical group have been busy making pyjama bottoms from upcycled duvets, using the brilliant Jaimie pattern…look out for our to celebrate the end of the course next week! As part of the course, which has brought together different cultures and ethnicities, we’ve looked at exploring these and how we all respond differently, so we designed an activity for folks to talk through different areas in between making, cutting, chatting and making tea! 🪡
Our K2Tog group is seeing people completing their first knitting and crochet projects in just a few sessions, with so much great peer skill-sharing, really grateful to our peer leaders Zamina and 🧶
It’s a buzzing week and it’s not over yet…another of our amazing participants, Lynn, is running her own Sell Your Work session on Friday from her lived experience for other members of our group, and then we have Saturday Sewing Cafe this Saturday with fabulous artist so do sign up if you live in Cambridge City or are a Ukrainian in City or South Cambs ☕️
Phew! You’ll find us at
