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.

- 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!

🌻Sunflower update! The flowers are growing daily and we’re keeping a very close eye on them, but we haven’t had the rain they need so they are still small and will not be flowering for a while yet.
📆We’ve moved the opening date for the field from very early August to early/mid August (we’ve pencilled in the 8th as the opening at the moment but this may yet change).
We can’t wait to welcome you to a field of gold … but we all have to be patient for a little while longer and keep hoping for some good rain. Nature takes the time she needs 🌱
Stay tuned for further updates 🌻😃👍
