TexStyle textile and stitch festival.

 I’ve had notification of the TexStyle textile and stitch festival at Manchester Central Convention Complex on 14th and 15th March.

There will be workshops, talks, demonstrations, textile galleries and a marketplace.

Workshops are booking up quickly.

Discount available for groups of 10 or more.

Pearlies! A History of Pearl Buttons and Pearly Kings and Queens

 I’m afraid there is another change to the programme as the March speaker has cancelled. On 3rd March the new speaker will be Jane Thomas an expert on pearl buttons who will give us a talk on their history and use.
