We are delighted to welcome tutors and traders from all over Scotland and the North of England, and wish everyone attending Fibre Fest a wonderful weekend of fibre filled fun.

In 2020 we are offering classes in Machine Sewing, Felted Flowers, Japanese Sashiko sewing,  needlefelting, sock making and gettimg to know your sewing machine.  Classes are available for beginners and those with a little more experience.     All classes must be booked in advance as space is limited.

There will be 'Make and take demonstrations' with the Yuza Sashiko Guild in the West Church Hall on Saturday and Sunday 14th/15th March.  Many of the geometric patterns resemble blackwork, and all are made with running stitch.  Come to the West Church Hall to have a go at traditional Yuza Sashiko!  There will be a small charge for the materials and patterns, payable direct to Yuza Sashiko Guild.
