This NEW show offers the skills, products and inspiration to Make It Yourself. Buy from over 150 companies selling specialist craft supplies and hand-made craft products. Learn a new skill or project in one of the hundreds of workshops on offer.

Join the production line in the Dressmaking Factory and learn buttonholes, seams, hems, zip insertion and many more dressmaking skills.

The Home Sweet Home Making area provides a comfy home-from-home environment to give you all the inspiration and help you need to create some pretty and practical things for the home.

We present a gallery of traditional patchwork quilts and we celebrate the art of knitting and crochet with guest appearances from top authors, numerous knitting boutiques and experts to teach you knitting and crochet techniques. We’re also running a Knitted Spring Garden competition and we’d love your contribution – see www.twistedthread.com for more details.
