Another lush meeting of the Handmade Hangout tonight 🩷 so lovely to see everyone, and a few new faces to boot! A big shout out to Elaine - who attended our English Paper piecing workshop a couple of weeks ago. Not only did she fall in love with EPP and brought some to the hangout, but look at the fantastic hand embroidery she’s added to the tote bag she made at our workshop!

HOLY MOLY! It’s been a busy few weeks for Thimble People - two fantastic group workshops, our first meeting of the Handmade Hangout AND collecting our brand new sewing machines.

The machines have very kindly been paid for with grant money from HudEnterprise. And will allow Thimble People to expand our sewing machine sessions into group workshops! 🥳🥳

There are no group workshops in July, as I’m away on holiday and will be planning our new machine sewing workshops now that the grant funding has been approved! But fear not, you can still catch us at the Handmade Hangout at Family Hub on the 3rd and 17th July or book in for one of our 1-2-1 sessions!

World wide knit in public day is coming up this Saturday. Get those needles out! 🧶🧶

It is World Wide Knit in Public Day on Saturday 14 June. This is the day you are encouraged to take you knitting and crochet out and about - meet friends with yarn in a coffee, shop or go on a picnic, or go to an organised event.

We're adding the yarn shops hosting events to our blog post https://ukhandknitting.wordpress.com/2025/06/09/knit-in-public-at-a-yarn-shop/

Get your stitch on with our English Paper Piecing Workshop! Love slow stitching or want to try something new? You’ll learn how to hand-sew beautiful geometric patterns using fabric, paper templates, and a little patience. All materials provided, and you’ll leave with your own stitched piece and the skills to keep creating at home.

Some more shots of my final year university work. Regardless of some of the amazing shows I've been able to work on in my professional life, these will always be some of my favourite pieces. ❤
