Scrappy Fabric Wreathmaking

Edgar, a local artist, is leading a scrappy fabric wreathmaking session at the Abbeydale Ballroom on Tuesday 1 December, starting at 19:00. The idea is simple: you spend the evening making your own fabric-scrap Christmas wreath to hang on your door, weaving together materials provided on the night with scraps and trinkets you bring from home. If you've got a stash of offcuts, old ribbons, or bits of fabric that have been sitting in a drawer, this is the time to bring them along and work them into the wreath.

Edgar runs the whole thing, so you'll have clear, concise teaching to follow throughout. It's not about being an expert maker; the focus is on the process of weaving and assembling, and you'll leave with something finished and ready for your door. The materials provided cover the basics, and the more you bring from home, the more personal your wreath becomes.

The setting is the Abbeydale Ballroom (383 Abbeydale Road, Nether Edge, S7 1FS), and the evening is as much about the company as the crafting. Cocktails, taps, and easy conversation run alongside the teaching, so you can chat with the people around you while you work. It's a relaxed way to spend a Tuesday night in December, especially if you're looking for something to get you into the Christmas spirit without the rush.

Tickets are £31.05 via Eventbrite, and the session kicks off at 19:00 on Tuesday 1 December at the Abbeydale Ballroom in Nether Edge.
