A beginners workshop where you will learn how to make a reversible tote bag, including making a buttonhole.
All fabrics are provided in a heavy weight cotton to make a strong and lasting bag which is fully reversible with no raw edges.
You will have written instructions with images to refer back to.
Most people who have attended have gone on to make lots more bags for themselves and as gifts, I think you will be addicted!!
Its such fun to make your own bags and you would also be doing your bit for the environment, with handmade bags that will last!

Reversible Tote workshop 11th Jan 20
Lovely, clear guidance and support. I'm feeling proud of my reversible tote bag. Thank you
Fun and informative, good value for money. Judi is a great teacher.
I recently attended the "Canvas Tote Bag" workshop run by Judi.
The workshop was "very good", I really enjoyed it, and loved my new handmade bag.
Excellent Morning spent in a small friendly group, Judi helped me through the process and I came away with a lovely Tote bag and pattern. I have made another on my own at home and have fabric on order to make even more. I hope to attend further sessions in the future.

Judi explains everything step by step making it very easy for a newbie sewer. We got the template and instructions to take home, so I will be making a lot more. Fabric is great quality, and the bags are very useful. Don't hesitate If you are considering doing this, its great fun!

Attended this course with Judi and thoroughly enjoyed it. I particularly liked the small group as this gave us all the individual help when we needed it. I love the finished bag and will definitely be using it and making more as gifts for my friends.
