SUMMARY:Slow Stitch Club – Tuesday 3rd November
DESCRIPTION:Welcome to our Slow Stitch Club\, meeting on the first Tuesday of every month at the Cornish Craft Barn. Everyone is welcome\, whatever your skill level! \n\n\n\nUnlike our machine-based stitch clubs\, this is a relaxing day of hand stitching: embroidery\, hand quilting\, English paper piecing\, mending\, or whatever you love to stitch. It is not a tutored session\, but a friendly room full of experience to share\, plus lots of lovely chat\, coffee and cake. \n\n\n\nWhat to stitch: we may offer a slow stitch project to join in with\, or you are welcome to bring along your own stitching and enjoy our space. \n\n\n\nThe session runs from 10am – 4pm\, but feel free to come for as much of it as suits you. Lunch can be bought in the cafe with a 10% discount\, and there is plenty of parking outside. \n\n\n\nWe ask for payment quarterly in advance: £17.50 per session\, so £52.50 covers three sessions. If you can’t make a session you can use the credit at any of our other monthly clubs\, or carry one session over within a 6 month period. If you’d like to try us out first\, or just come along occasionally\, a single session is £20.

SUMMARY:An Introduction to Water Soluble Oils — with Les Trewin
DESCRIPTION:Book your place — £49 → \nAn introduction to water-soluble oils — a full day with guest tutor Les Trewin. \nOil paint without the solvents. Water-soluble oils behave like conventional oils and finish like them too\, but the brushes wash out in water — which makes them a genuinely practical way into oil painting. \nYou will make your own small still-life study over the day. Les begins with the medium itself: how it differs from conventional oils\, what it does well\, and what it asks of you. Then the underpainting — an imprimatura in burnt sienna — building the tonal values of the still life and learning how contrast creates form and depth. After lunch\, colour: mixing and matching accurately from a limited palette\, working thin to thick and dark to light\, and building the layers that give a painting its depth. You will finish with advice on varnishing. \nBy the end you should have the skill and the confidence to pick up water-soluble oils on your own. \nNo experience needed. Boards come ready gessoed with a still-life drawing prepared for you\, and you take home a palette with enough paint to finish your piece if you would like to. \nFriday\, 10am–4pm\, with half an hour for lunch\, at the Cornish Craft Barn. \nBook your place →

SUMMARY:Wheal Rose Stitch Club – Tuesday 8th December
DESCRIPTION:Welcome to one of our many Cornish Craft Barn Stitch Groups. We run several regular groups that meet once a month.  If you’re interested in joining one\, everyone is welcome with any type of project and all levels!  \n\n\n\nThis is an all-day session where you can work on quilting projects on machines or by hand with other quilters who are looking to share ideas and experience and can provide guidance for each other – plus lots of lovely chat\, cake and coffee!  It is not a ‘tutored’ session but a room filled with abundant expertise from which to seek assistance. We can offer short demonstrations or mini projects from time to time if this is something the group decides they want!  \n\n\n\nThe session runs from 10am – 4pm but feel free to attend as much of this as you can to fit in with your other commitments. Lunch can be bought from the cafe with a 10% discount.  Plenty of parking outside and we can give you a hand to get your machines upstairs to the training room if needed.  \n\n\n\nJanome sewing machines can be borrowed from our sewing studio for the day if you’d rather not bring your own. Please let us know in advance so we can make sure one is ready for you. \n\n\n\nWe ask for payment quarterly in advance £17.50 per session\, so £52.50 which covers three sessions for you. If you can’t make a session you can use the credit at any of our other monthly clubs\, or carry one session over in any 6 month period. If you’d like to test us out and attend one session before you commit; this is fine too and we charge £20 for this\, or just pay £20 to attend the occasional one off session without any longer commitment. \n\n\n\nTickets
