Upholstery 1 day workshop - make your own footstool

Description

Make your own footstool in just one day in the relaxed rural setting of the Lune Valley just south of Kirkby Lonsdale, on the border of the Yorkshire Dales and the Lancashire. All the upholstery workshops are guided by Sue Marsden. Sue is the owner of Tuffett and makes bespoke footstools for clients throughout the UK. She also teaches upholstery and runs weekly classes. These one-day workshops are for those who live further away or who haven’t the time to come weekly. No previous experience is needed. Sue’s workshop overlooks glorious countryside and is a light and airy space with a wood burning stove for colder days. Parking is on site next to the workshop. You will take home your completed project having enjoyed a fun day out and learned new skills for life. You will make a 30 x 35cm footstool with legs. Sue will prepare the base and provide all the equipment and materials you need. You will need to bring 1m of your chosen top fabric which Sue can help you to source when you book the class. You will have individual attention to ensure you can progress at your own speed on the day. Come with friends and make your own group if you wish.

I have always enjoyed making things and teaching others so both the woodwork and upholstery workshops are a joy. I make footstools to commission, teach weekly upholstery classes and run the one day workshops once a month. Everyone enjoys coming to the classes and workshops and it's a lovely space in a countryside setting.
