BagLady Design-A-Bag Workshop
What is a Design-a-Bag Workshop?
An informal, fun event with the opportunity to create your own eclectic, one-off ‘Designer’ handbag (but the ‘Designer’ is you!).
Do I have to be great at sewing?
No- you just need imagination and an urge to make something unique. If you can sew a button on then a BagLady ‘D-a-B’ Workshop is for you!
How Does It Work?
Call or email louise to book a place on a workshop.
Louise will then send you a booking form –simply complete this and return it with your deposit. (Please call Louise for details).
