I can do Tues 21st, Weds 22nd or Fri 24th evening's next week for sewing, let me know what suits everyone?

I have an open studio coming up 18th-19th June as part of the Camberwell Arts week, (private view, Fri 17th, 6_9pm) So I am just trying to work out if we can do our first evening before that. The week after the Open Studio I run Arts Club at the Art Deli in Camberwell, this is a great venue as they have wine and I did wonder about running the class here, it would work well for basic hand stitching techniques, but for alterations we would need the privacy of my studio. So, we have options and I would be interested to hear your thoughts. Thanks

Would you like to learn some basic sewing techniques? How to do simple alterations to get a really good fit? Do you have a favourite thing that needs altering, mending? Do you have a bargain you bought in the Sales that doesn't really fit? Do you have an urge to make a cushion? I've been doing alterations for people on the forum for years and have been asked many times about doing classes... So, who wants to come along and learn ? When would work for you? Evening? Daytime? What would you like to learn? All thoughts, ideas welcome. Thanks Sue, 07894438163

My daughter and her friend just did a couple of evenings podcasting with Zoe and Leon. They totally loved it and had a really great time.

Great, will let you know some dates and we'll get stitching !

Great, gather your garments and I'll sort out a good time.

It will be fine, you can do it ! I have 4 but all far apart in age...I've been dealing with one teenager after another for 17 years and just embarking on the last teenage roller coaster..I have to say I'm a bit tired of it now. Your teenage roller coaster will be a much shorter ride, You will be able to sit back and put your feet up and smile.

I've been thinking about offering an evening of alteration advice and basic sewing skills as I do a lot of alterations professionally. With a few basic sewing skills and a bit of confidence it's amazing what you can do ! Let me know if you'd be interested in a small group lesson at my studio. Sue 07894438163

Simply fabrics in Brixton.... Two shops one with a lot of end of roll furnishing/curtain fabrics and haberdashery incredibly cheap , the other full of designer fabrics at silly prices. They can be full of fashion students, but they are great places to source something special, only thing is buy it when you find it because it won't be there when you go back.

Steve is a good gardener....his grandfather was head gardener at Castle Ashby...so he knows what he's doing. His number 07909720208

Have a look at this site www.blipshop.co.uk/ Has great ironing board covers, and table cloths oven gloves etc

Mr Jolly is a great sweep, he'll be in the area on 26th (doing our chimney) and may fit you in too.... He's friendly quick and knows what he's doing. His name isn't Mr Jolly really, it's Phil, he has a website too. 07752130577

The Government plans to reduce staff-to-child ratios in early years settings and for childminders in England. Nursery and pre-school staff could be expected to look after six two-year-old children (up from the current limit of four) and four babies aged one or under (up from three). Childminders could be expected to care for four children under five (up from three) and two babies under one (up from one). Please sign the pre school learning alliance's official HM Government approved petition to stop government plans to relax the adult to child ratios for caring for babies and two year olds and require them to carry out a consultation on the proposals Please pass it on to friends who need to know.. http://www.rewindonratios.com/ Thankyou
