Crochet Company

Friday morning in my world

 is turning into a very special place!

Coffee, cake, crochet, yarn, fabric

 and the company and conversation

 of others who get it!

We haven't met before

 and come from many different locations

 and walks of life!

 Age doesn't matter

 as we all speak the same language of hooky!

Yet when you see us sat as a group

 you'd think we were old friends!

 All very comfortable in each others company

 discussing

 stitches patterns colours yarns

 and sometimes just enjoying that companionable silence

 as we count and hook to our hearts content!

The coffees teas and cakes

 are all beautifully served by the lovely ladies at

  Love Stitch

 and we so enjoy the fabulous surroundings

 which make a stitcher's heaven.

 Whether you are into fabric or yarn,

 this shop is definitely worth a visit!

The cute little tearoom

 decorated with patchwork and crocheted cushions,

 coloured painted chairs and chandeliers

 is a delightful place to meet.

We are a newly formed group and welcome newcomers.

We meet on Friday Mornings

 10am to 12 noon

at

Love Stitch, 

Telegraph Rd, Heswall, Wirral CH60 7SG

 Come regularly,

 come occasionally

 or come once to visit!

We will be pleased to meet you

 and share crochet time together.

 Just bring your hooky and enjoy a coffee and cake

 with crochet company and conversation!

Love Stitch

 you could need

 but they also run many interesting courses

 in sewing knitting crochet and other crafts too.

Whatever you are hookin

I'm indulging in some rainbow fun

with the gorgeous colours of

Stylecraft Special DK

making a quick corner to corner blanket for a gift.

if you haven't tried this lovely stitch you must!

 I learnt by following the wonderful free pattern by

 Felted Button.

New Coffee n Crochet group!

Something very exciting is happening!

Hidden up an alley way

 in Heswall on The Wirral 

I have discovered a little gem called Love Stitch! 

If you like fabric, yarn, haberdashery,

 books, tea and cake

 this place is a must!

You can be sure of a wonderful welcome

 from the lovely ladies at Love Stitch

 who obviously really enjoy their work.

This amazing shop tucked away off the main street

 is packed to the brim with delightful treasures.

Beautifully decorated

 with bunting and chandeliers

 this shop is a dream!

It has the cutest little tearoom

 serving homemade cakes

 and will make an ideal meeting place.

It is such a delightful relaxing place

 which I know you ladies will find inspiring

 and I am very excited to announce

 that I am starting a new

 Coffee n Crochet group 

here!

We will meet on

 Friday mornings 10am to 12 noon,

 starting Friday 22nd July.

The shop is situated by the main traffic lights in Heswall centre,

address Telegraph Road, Heswall, Wirral CH60 7SG

 The aim is to start a social group

 where crocheters can meet and enjoy coffee and cake,

 a chat and time to hook.

 Bring your crochet

 and come and enjoy meeting new people. 

No need to come every week, just drop in when you can!

As well as selling fabric, yarn, patterns, ribbons

 and every bit of haberdashery you could want

Love Stitch offers a wealth of courses

 including sewing, knitting and crochet. 

 I am also very pleased to say

 that I will be running crochet inspiration workshops

 here starting in the autumn!

There will be half day courses and full days,

 smaller projects and more ambitious ones too.

 We are still working on the programme

 and as soon as it's finalised

 I will be posting details of the courses and how to book!

So anyone in the Liverpool, Wirral and Chester area 

pass the message on to fellow crocheters!

   I look forward to seeing you there.

 No need to book, just turn up,

treat yourself to a cake and drink

 and enjoy crochet conversation and new friends!

Wishing you all a happy hooky day

Crochet Inspiration Workshops

 I have a dream

 to be full time at The Patchwork Heart,

 making items to sell in my Etsy shop and teaching my craft.

At present school holidays are a time when I can live my dream

and this week has been a lovely little taste of my future. 

People often say they would love to visit my home

 full of colour and yarny goodness. It is indeed my happy place

 and I am blessed with time off now to enjoy much crochet therapy.

This week I began an exciting new chapter in my crochet journey

with a beginners crochet course at the lovely

 Sugar Plum Tearoom, Rhewl, N Wales

Oh what a beautiful place it is

and such a perfect spot I'm sure you will agree

 for an evening of crochet inspiration

The happy faces say it all

what a wonderful time we had

learning to make granny squares

and of course there has to be tea and cake!

I am very excited to tell you

 that as well as more workshops at this lovely venue,

 I am in discussions with another local gallery space

 and will soon be releasing a programme of

 Crochet Inspiration Workshops

 for the summer and autumn!

I am planning workshops for experienced crocheters,

 to come along and enjoy sharing a time of colourful yarny goodness . . . 

time to meet other crochet enthusiasts and learn new skills.

It is hoped that some will be evenings and others will be Saturday afternoons,

 to allow people to travel from a distance to join us!

If this is something you would enjoy

 I'd be really pleased to hear from you,

 as I plan the projects for these Crochet Inspiration Workshops. 

Why not bring a group of friends and make it a day out?

Wishing you all a happy weekend

Heather
