Magical Fairy Workshop
Come along and join Sara Sherriff to make your own beautiful fairy.
You will spend the day sewing, chatting and generally having a lovely time, and leave with your own little fairy to do with what you will; your fairy would do an excellent job of sitting on top of your Christmas tree, making you smile for years to come and becoming part of your Christmas tradition. She could make a wonderful gift for a special friend or add magic to a child’s bedroom.
What Will I do?
- Learn how to make a fairy from start to finish
- Bring any special pieces of fabric with you that you may wish to use to make your fairy more personal
- all sewing equipment, such as needles and scissors, will be proivided
Who is this workshop suitable for?
- People aged 16 and over
- Beginners
- No prior experience of sewing needed
Enjoy a fun and creative few hours and take home a beautiful fairy made by you!

The hot and dry weather has kept our team quite busy. We have focused on watering the newly established trees, ensuring they receive the hydration they need. It’s essential to give these young trees a well-deserved drink, as they play a vital role in our landscape and ecosystem on the Estate.
By supporting these trees, we aim to help them endure the heat and establish strong roots, contributing to the beauty and biodiversity of Rougham Estate for years to come.
