2013 Classes at Fabrications
Updated 4 April 2013
Fabrications offer many creative classes in their purpose built ‘Imaginerium’.
Get inspired, learn new skills and build your confidence with Barley Massey and her team of textile professionals. There is lots on offer to suit all levels – beginners knitting, crochet, patchwork quilting, and with support from Brother you can do your Provisional Driving’ – learning to use a sewing machine, ‘The Mighty Stitch’ – machine embroidery or perhaps a ‘DIY Couture’ scater skirt!

* * PROMOTION * * As with my Beginners Knitting, a discount is offered when you book all 3 classes,
I’m extending this to other classes, so you can mix and match any 3 and get a discount for block booking.
If you’ve already attended a class this year that counts and is valid for classes between January – March.
(just remind me which class you came to!)
