Highlights: Carnival Couture Craft Night



You came, you crafted and you got into the carnival spirit! Here are some snaps from our most stylish craft night yet!

Tree from Stitchless TV showed us how to sew zips in to make-up bags using specially designed Carnival Couture fabric printed just for us by Bags Of Love. (WOW!) 


Momtaz & Tree










Well you can't have a carnival without masks - (ok maybe not sleep masks but they will come in use for post carnival recovery)









Knit & Knatter - guest tutor & knitting princess Louise Walker taught newbies like lovely Zahra how to knit



Over in the Collage Corner there was musical instrument making and lots of colouring, cutting & sticking, just how we like it!
