Join the wonderfully talented Hayley from Litterbugs for a relaxing and inspiring introduction to the fascinating Japanese art of Kinusaiga – often described as patchwork without sewing.

Using a selection of gorgeous fabrics, you’ll create your own unique piece of textile artwork by gently tucking fabric into a pre-cut design. There’s no stitching involved, making this a wonderfully mindful craft that’s surprisingly easy to learn and incredibly satisfying to complete.

Whether you’re drawn to colourful geometric designs, hearts, flowers or beautiful landscapes, Hayley will guide you step by step, sharing tips and techniques to help you create a piece you’ll be proud to display at home or give as a thoughtful handmade gift.

All materials are provided, along with a fantastic choice of fabrics to suit every style. No previous experience is needed – just come along, relax, enjoy a cuppa and discover a craft that is both calming and addictive.

Our session includes tea and coffee, it would be great if you could bring along cake or something sweet to share with members for our cake table.
