Join Chloe for a step by step lesson on how to make a beautiful gathered silk sari lampshade.
Gathered lampshades have never been more popular and now is your chance to learn how to make your own. Created out of gorgeous silk saris with a hand pleated lining and, for the ultimate professional finish, a hand sewn trim.
A making kit along with sundries and fabric will be provided as well as a delicious light lunch and refreshments throughout the day.
Limited places available
Open to everyone, no experience necessary, but a keen interest in hand sewing a bonus!

Chloe is a designer and textile artist, specialising in upholstery, soft-furnishings, vintage textiles and unique objects for the home. Chloe's fascination with the art of hand sewing was ignited at University when studying History of Art, after which she embarked on a career rooted in furniture and soft furnishing making. In 2015, she founded her eponymous design business - based out of her studio in the South Lincolnshire countryside - where she crafts bespoke homewares and handmade lampshades using colourful vintage fabrics and carefully curated textiles sourced from across the globe. She has just launched her debut online video course - A Hand Sewn Lampshade Masterclass - with Create Academy.
Learning is joyful, empowering and transformational.
