One of our Crafters Helen made these. She is a demon on the sewing machine! She seems to make 50 things each session!! She made pen holders in various fabrics one session and then made these trinket bags and a lovely tote bag out of one piece of fabric!

We have loads of fabric and a sewing machine for you to come down and have a go yourself or if you want to bring your own project to work on thats great too xx
