Our first Evening Sewing Circle was a delight! 🧵 A warm and welcoming space for those who can’t make daytime sessions, full of creativity, chatter, and homemade treats. 🌟 Cicely finished her beautiful boiled wool top – and fun fact, she was the one who inspired the idea for evening sessions! 🖼️ Two of our attendees (in the fabulous hats!) are keen on getting reclaimed wooden picture frames made – a great example of how creativity sparks new ideas at Green Hive. 🍪 Lesley & Cicely kept us fuelled with delicious home baking – a true taste of community spirit. The vibe? Relaxed, inspiring, and wonderfully ‘couthy’. Can’t wait for the next one on the 11th February, if you want to join you can RSVP here: https://buff.ly/4giuyag #EveningSewingCircle #Upcycling #CommunityCreativity #GreenHive
