Young Embroiderers under 12

Young Embroiderers meet on the first Saturday in the month (except August and December) at St Mary’s Church Centre, Leamington CV31 1JW from 11 am- 1.00 pm

Our activities include all kinds of textile-related activities such as hand and machine stitching, dyeing, printing, weaving, use of beads and other decorative items. We also use different kinds of materials such as paper and waste materials as well as fabrics and threads.

We have made bags, cushions and wall hangings as well as cards and gifts for special occasions. 

Sometimes we enter competitions and take part in exhibitions. 

The ages of our Young members range from 8 to 17.

Girls and boys are all welcome to join us.

Welcome to Leamington & District Embroiderers' Guild Branch!

The Leamington & District Branch is a friendly group and offers you the opportunity to meet other people who love embroidery and textiles.  We welcome all new members, whether you are a beginner, an experienced stitcher, or taking up embroidery again after an absence – don’t let fears about ‘being good enough’ put you off.

We are a supportive group, keen to share our skills and to learn from each other.  We host regular talks and workshops by expert tutors, and we get together two or three times a year for Members’ Days, when we share members’ expertise more informally and enjoy a bring-and-share lunch.  We distribute our own branch newsletter three times a year to keep up-to-date with what our members are doing, as well as what’s going on in the textile world – shows, exhibitions, new artists, suppliers, magazines, books, videos, etc.

If you would like to join Leamington & District Branch, please email our Membership Secretary: leamingtondistrictmembership@gmail.com for an application form and mailing preference form.
