Open night for the Textiles room - 17 January. Come along to find out more about the equipment we have.
Never used a sewing machine? Find out how!
What’s an overlocker? Have sewing fun with extra cutting-y-ness!
Embroidery you say? We have a machine for that!
Already know how to sew? - Come along for sewing related chat, telly and perhaps a biscuit or 5! Come show off your latest project or talk through your future plans.
Open to everyone including non-members. I’ll give demos and practical sessions as a drop-in through the evening so first come, first serve!
I’ve got something I’m trying to embroider using the machine, and I could definitely do with some help troubleshooting why it’s not working properly. I’ll bring it along tonight
@Martyn_Thomas - the only machine I lleft out last night was the wimsew overlocker. A bit seems to have fallen off it but I’m damned it I know what it is! Also, I cannot rethread the thing for the life of me so I haven’t been able to check if it is working - sorry.
Embroidery machine - all fine. Was slight bend in the thread guider but Sam fixed it.
Janome overlocker - rethreaded and running fine.
Janome sewing machine - all good although dogs are still sticking if you put in the down position, easy to lift them up again when you take the plate off. Perhaps something to add to any videos we make.
