Two pin cushions made from multicoloured floral patterned fabric on blue demin wrist straps.

About

In celebration of the successful restoration of our historic Pin Factory building, our resident textiles artist Ally Goff is holding a one hour workshop to make a dressmakers' pin cushion that you wear on your wrist. Using upcycled materials from The Folk of Gloucester, and beautiful fabric, this easy to make item will be a helpful addition to your dressmaking.

Tickets are just £5 per person with all materials provided. Spaces are limited, so booking ahead is encouraged!
