Coffee, Cake, 'n' Craft - Fabric Pine Cones in New Romney, Kent

Description

This seasonal craft workshop focuses on creating fabric pine cone decorations using layered textiles and simple construction techniques, with no sewing required. You will work with rich fabrics to build shape, texture and depth, resulting in finished decorations suitable for autumn or Christmas display. During the session, you will select from a range of seasonal fabrics, including festive prints and warm, autumnal tones, and learn how to layer and secure them to form a structured pine cone shape. You will then add finishing details to refine your piece. There is also the option to include subtle seasonal scents, such as cinnamon, orange, clove or woodland notes, adding an extra sensory element to your decoration. The workshop is suitable for all experience levels and is ideal for anyone looking for a calm, hands-on creative session. Guidance is provided throughout, allowing you to work at a relaxed pace while still having the freedom to make design choices. Held as part of our Coffee, Cake, ’n’ Craft series, the session offers a friendly, sociable environment where you can enjoy the making process without pressure.
