Full Circle - Childrens Creative Sewing Classes

 Feels like I've come full circle...

from the girl who hated sewing as a child [too many rules]
to the 20-something who decided to study it [wasn't going to be a barmaid or gulf cook for ever!]
learning that you need to know the rules 
before you can break them
who for the past 15 or so years has shared her version of sewing with others via workshops/talks/blog posts

all the time developing her craft 
to this point 

creative sewing classes for children 
with a focus on REinventing
because these are the sewing classes I wish I could've done as a child
and now as an adult
knowing the truth about sewing
[you create with your head, hands & heart]
that through the art of stitch you discover 
mindfulness 
slowing down, answering your own questions, listening to & relying on your intuition
respect
 there's a ripple effect when you realise your ideas & thoughts are worthy
resilience
failures, mistakes & errors are the best excuse to do better next time

all attributes that some most struggle with in this 
fast paced technology driven in your face take a number at times soulless world 
because it's hard to find a soft place to fall 
and I'd like to offer that
somewhere that screens are turned off & imaginations turned on
where being connected is about being the best version of yourself
and taking time out to create is cool
cos you get to make stuff!
