2-zip pouch
Fancy an “all in” workshop? Just turn up and we will provide the rest including expert tuition on how to insert the zips! Zips frighten people and there are so many ways to insert them so we thought we’d show you one way and all our top tips. You get to come and make a clever, fun pouch with two zips that can be used for many things, from pens and pencils to cosmetics or craft supplies. I may have made a few and have about 5 I use for different things at home!
Remember all materials are supplied so all you need to do is turn up! How fun is that!
What will we cover?
During this fun workshop you’ll learn
- simple quilting skills

How will I be taught?
You’ll be taught in our lovely studio by a friendly and experienced tutor, through demonstration and guidance as you work.
You’ll also be able to ask questions, making sure everything is clear and that you’re getting the best results you can.
Do I need any previous experience or skills?
This workshop is suitable for beginners upwards but we assume you are happy with a sewing machine. This class is timed to focus on the project not understanding the machine.

Tutor
Owner of Made and Making, Sarah has been sewing all her life. Her passion is helping others to gain the same level of enjoyment from mastering these creative skills. She's known for her infectious enthusiasm, her endless knowledge and for her knack for explaining things clearly, leading to lots of 'aha!' moments. You may have seen her share some of those on the TV channel Sewing Street. In a previous life, Sarah was a branch manager in an insurance firm. Taking redundancy in 2012 allowed her to follow her dream of creating a hub for sewing and craft. At Made and Making Sarah teaches sewing, crochet, needle felting and other craft courses. She's also one of the tutors for the children's workshops. When family life allows, Sarah loves nothing more than immersing herself in her own projects.
