Make your own 'Little Person' Workshop
"Attended Jacky's workshop yesterday and it was a wonderful day in which I made a great little person using remnants and reclaimed materials. Jacky is a lovely person and a good teacher, happily sharing her skills and experience. She was also really patient and encouraging even though I still think my doll looks like she's been living under a hedge! The workshop is also loads of fun meeting with lots of good people. Thoroughly recommend. Thank you Jacky."
make your own seated little person -basic hand sewing is needed - running stitch/back stitch - but you don't need to be neat.
You are welcome to bring your own fabrics if you want to include something personal but this isn't expected and there will be plenty provided on the day
