Relax, stitch and create – Discover the Joy of Quilting

The Quilters Guild believes in the joy of stitching and quilting can be enjoyed by everyone, both young and old.
Quilting can be a brilliant way to unwind, relieve stress, and express creativity. Focusing on a project can divert attention from everyday emotions and worries and provide a calming effect. Participating in creative activities is a fantastic way to relax and promote good mental health, as it reduces stress and lowers blood pressure

Come along on Sat 22nd August and try some slow stitching for yourself. You will be guided through making one or two projects using hand stitching and/or a sewing machine.

Everyone is welcome-: the young and the not-so-young! No prior knowledge needed… just a willingness to sit, relax and enjoy creating!

Where – Flackwell Heath Community Library
When – Saturday 22nd August 10am – 1pm

FREE

ONE WEEK TO GO to the beginning of the Summer Reading Challenge here at Flackwell Heath Community Library.

Do you have a child ages 4-11 years old? Do they need some encouragement to, or do they already love to read?

The Summer Reading Challenge is suitable for both, as it encourages and rewards children to read. The standard challenge is to read six books of their choice (fiction, non-fiction. audiobooks, poetry,, comics, etc) during the summer holidays. And this year the challenge is called 'Read to the Beat' and is music based.

Come in to the library to register (and to sign up to the library for free if required - please bring some photo ID) and then come in to collect their stickers for each book that's read. Then, once they've finished, they'll receive a medal and certificate in their school assembly in September.

So come down and sign up, from Saturday 4th July (we are open from 10am-1pm on Saturday). See you all there, and happy reading !
