✨ Making the Ava Appliqué Reading Cushion ✨

Looking for a project that’s sew much fun it ought to come with a giggle warning?
Join us for our Ava Appliqué Reading Cushion class—a warm, welcoming workshop where
creativity and coffee, tea and biscuits flow in equal measure.
Whether you’re a stitching superstar or can barely thread a needle without emotional
support, this class has your back (and your bobbin). We’ll guide you step‑by‑step as you
create a gorgeous, personalised reading cushion—perfect for gifting, keeping, or proudly
showing off to anyone who stands still long enough.
Expect friendly chatter, relaxed vibes, and the occasional celebratory cheer when someone
finally conquers that one tricky seam. By the end, you’ll have a beautiful cushion, new
sewing confidence, and probably a couple of new crafty pals too.
Come along, join the fun, and let’s make something fabulous together! ��✨
