Sewing Oystercard holders with Crafternoon Cabaret
The amazing Hannah who runs a monthly craft event at the swanky Hospital Club joined us to run a stitching your own oyster card holder session. Crafternoon Cabaret have just turned 1! Check them out as they have some very fun workshops AND live cabaret guests. Momtaz went along to its old home in an Islington pub. See what she made here.
And here's what you got up to. WOW!
Probably the most glamorous oyster card holder in London!
Matt from City Pop Outs is a regular Make Escaper & had previously run our live stage drawing sessions but this was his first workshop and it was so much fun!
Participants made their own incredible London landscapes inspired by Matt's own artwork...which was also on sale at our Maker's Market.
How sweet is this little chappie?
Karen and Jo who are experts in up-cycling showed us what to do with our left over red and black fabric scraps...turn them into queen's guards or course! These ones smile more than the real thing!
Claire brought along pieces of coffee sack which made the ideal base to embroidery London's finest landmarks. It was the most popular workshop of the night!
Bridges were especially popular!
Knit & Knatter
Resident knitting guru Beryl was on hand to teach newbies how to knit and as ever we had some people pick up needles for the first time.
We also plied you with inspiration to do your own London themed collaging and modelling.
Music
Finally we'd like to say a huge thank you to our ever fabulous DJs - we were joined by 2/3 of The Spinning Yarns and the city soundtrack was spectacular - they thought of everything!
Join us on May 27th for our 2nd BIRTHDAY! Woop! Woop!
Our humble little craft night is turning 2 and we have a mega prized filled event planned. Same time, same place, same free entry, lots of fun new workshops! Full event details coming soon!
