Monday 9 July 2012

ALL SEWN UP





Kathleen, the gorgeous Human from Murgatroyd and Bean, has become a much-cherised part of the furniture here at Salvation. So imagine our devastation as the last of her 4-week Hand Emboidery workshops drew to a close on Friday.

Just as we were about to ball in to our Breakfast Bruschettas, Kath presented us with her timetable of new workshops, scheduled to take place on Friday mornings throughout July and August - hooray!!!




Workshops will take place on Fridays between 10am - 12pm, from 13th July - 31st August.

Each session will cost £20 (which includes all materials) or if you book a place on three sessions at once, £54.

Suitable for anyone who can thread a needle. Kathleen can accommodate parent + older child (10+) to most of these sessions.

Booking is essential as places are limited and can be reserved for you with a 50% deposit.

To book a place please contact: kathleen@murgatroydandbean.co.uk or Helen Creese at cafesalvation@gmail.com
