Everyone had a fantastic time learning traditional stone masonry techniques, developing new skills, making new friendships and having plenty of laughs along the way.

A huge thank you to The Robertson Trust for funding this project and making opportunities like this possible for our community. Kelly and Garry for organising!

Introducing Jill, our Make Do and Mend workshop guru!

Jill was lucky enough to learn her craft from the very best – her mum and grandma – who passed down their skills, passion, and, most definitely, their patience for creating by hand.

Inspired by the landscapes, traditions, and rich heritage crafts that surround her, Jill loves giving new life to old fabrics, repurposing treasured materials into beautiful handmade creations. For her, every stitch carries a little piece of family heritage that can be cherished for years to come.

Why not come along to one of our Make Do and Mend classes next week and take advantage of Jill’s expertise, creativity, and passion for crafting? Whether you're looking to learn a new skill, revive an old one, or simply enjoy a few hours of making and mending, you'll be made very welcome.
