Katie

Kettering Leicestershire Crafty Hen Party Workshop Leader

About Me

I love teaching the Crafty Hen workshops they are so much fun and full of laughter. I love learning new skills and experiences so having the chance to pass them on and teach others is a lovely opportunity. I get to share my creative knowledge of sewing and textile and enjoy the pleasure it brings when they have succeeded in making something to wear or take away, that they said they wouldn't be able to.

My Favourite Things

I love going on city breaks where I spend hours wondering around art galleries soaking up inspiration for my artwork and losing myself in amazing fabric shops and markets full of colour and pattern. Just heaven. I also work in two art galleries and run my own textile homewares business.

Area of Expertise

Everybody there had a fantastic time, Karen and Katie were so helpful, brilliant at explaining everything and settling the nerves of the non crafters in the group They had some great fabrics with them and all the ladies in our group said how much fun they had. Such a lovely thing to do for an event and super chilled for the mum to be, she enjoyed it sooo much.
