Stitch Up Club here at Cornish Craft Barn. It’s a relaxed, weekly get-together for anyone who loves—or wants to love—all things stitching and textile arts.
What we all love about it:
There’s no pressure: you bring your project (or ideas) and work at your own pace
The vibe is warm, informal, and friendly — perfect for chatting, sharing tips, or just enjoying creative company
It’s open to all levels: absolute beginner, intermediate, or seasoned stitcher
You get to see what others are up to — it’s inspiring and encouraging
🧁Cake, we always have cake and lots of coffee☕️
There’s something so soothing about settling in with needle and thread, a cuppa nearby, and time to just make. If you’ve ever been curious to try something new (embroidery, quilting, mending, whatever), this might be your kind of space. We have huge tables to lay out projects on or put quilts together on, and sewing machines and overlockers you can use. The view’s not too bad either 🌅 😜
