Hi, I was wondering whether anyone knew of any nice venues in the area which run craft workshops for adults? I'm looking for something like Homemade London which I read about on the Brockley website. I know there's All Fired Up, but I see that as being something mainly for parents and kids - I'm looking for a place to go to take a class and meet some nice people - maybe have a glass of wine!


I'm happy to travel in to town, but any local ones too please?


Thank you.

Hi there


we run exactly what you are looking for (I hope!). We offer evening craft workshops where you come along, meet some like minded people, learn a new skill and take home something lovely you have made yourself. We provide all the materials you need.


Coming up in September we have:


- Beginners Knitting


- Beginners Crochet


- Cushion Making


- Sewing Children's Skirts


- Embroidery


- Cupcake Decorating


- A-line skirts (for intermediate sewers)


Plus lots more scheuled from October - December.


We also run private parties and workshops, so if you fancy getting a group of friends together, or the dates/times don;t suit we can run one just for you. We have just had 40 people at the East Dulwich Women's Institute and a Hen Party this week alone :)


We are based at All Fired Up.


You can book online here:

Please feel free to drop me a PM or email on [email protected] if you have any questions.

Thank you both for your suggestions. I must confess I didn't realise MakeHQ operated from All Fired Up, I will definitely try you out, although it sounds like Homemade London offers a different kind of course and experience. Great to have you on my doorstep though!

Hi Waynetta


I'd love you to join me for the embroidery workshop. I teach it, and its my very favourite. Its all funky and easy these days, not at all fuddy duddy. I've attached a picture of a tea towel I recently whipped up.


The next class we are running is on Monday 13th September from 7 - 9.30pm and there are still spaces left. The cost is ?40, and that includes all your materials (wooden hoop, tea towel, threads, needle etc) which you get to take home with you.

Hope to see you there,

Thanks, yes I know the Papered Parlour, but if I have to go beyond the borders of East Dulwich, I'd rather do it a stone's thrown from Selfridges and a short walk from Marylebone! Sounds like it's Homemade London in town and Make HQ for local craft classes.

    • We’ve got a gap on the roof of our shed that needs patching  don’t want to buy a huge roll so hoping someone has some leftover  happy to collect/reimburse 
    • I never said I thought it was targeted or deliberate. There also has never been a “stand off” or confrontation, we’ve spoken to them in a friendly manner about it. Our experience is they don’t seem to care. That’s the frustrating thing for us, if someone politely raises a concern at least take a second to reflect. Treat others how you would want to be treated.  I don’t want them to lose their job, far from it. But considering it could cost me a days work to fix any damage, I’m within my right to try prevent it.   
    • The SE22 Evri delivery family are lovely, and always say hello wherever we spot them in the area. We gave them a box of chocolates during Covid as they were working their socks off at Christmas
    • What was he doing on the stage at Glastonbury? Or on the stage at the other concert in Finsbury Park? Grinning like a Cheshire cat whilst pissed and stoned 20 somethings on the promise of free internet sung-- Oh Jeremy Corbyn---  What were his policies for Northern mining towns with no jobs or infrastructure? Free Internet and university places for youngsters. What were his other manifesto pledges? Why all the ambiguity over Brexit?  I didn't like Thatcher, Blair or May or Tony but I respected them as politicians because they stood by what they believed in. I respect all politicians across the board that stick to their principles. Corbyn didn't and its why he got  annihilated at the polls. A socialist, anti imperialist and anti capitalist that said he voted for an imperialist and pro capitalist cabal. He refused to say how he'd vote over and over again until the last knockings. He did so to appease the Islington elite and middle class students he was courting. The same people that were screaming that Brexit was racist. At the same time the EU were holding black and Asian immigrants in refugee camps overseas but not a word on that! Corbyn created and courted a student union protest movement that screamed at and shouted down anyone not on the left . They claimed Starmer and the centre right of labour were tories. He didn't get elected  because he, his movement and policies were unelectable, twice. He turned out not to have the convictions of his politics and died on his own sword.    Reform won't win an election. All the idiots that voted for them to keep out Labour actually enabled Labour. They'll be back voting tory next time.    Farage wouldn't be able to make his millions if he was in power. He's a very devious shyster but I very much doubt he'd actually want the responsibility that governance requires.
